newyorker:  No one seems ready to accept that the Parisian bookseller who, for thirty years, provided English speaking readers with the newest literary books, and the most exciting readings by authors— Allen Ginsberg, Raymond Carver, Susan Sontag, and Marilynne Robinson, to name a few (Michael Ondaatje, who will read from his latest book “The Cat’s Table” at end of this week, will be the last in this illustrious company)—will simply retire. No one, that is, but Hellier herself.  The Village Voice Bookshop, on the Rue Princesse in Paris, announced that it will go out of business on July 31st. Livia Manera attends the farewell party: http://nyr.kr/KDZcGK
