Paris Shakespeare Library - Sylvia Beach

Sylvia wrote to her mother, "I need funds, I'm going to open a bookstore." From here, Sylvia tried to borrow in order to obtain sufficient funds to establish a large cultural project, provide what the reader needs, and attract as many of them as possible, so that the library would be a cultural beacon that she dreamed of building.

In this book, Sylvia Beach presents her memoirs on the success industry, and how she began, showing us the obstacles she faced, as she recounted her stories with visiting readers, writers, and some publishers, who greatly contributed to the success of the library. Sylvia also mentioned her experience in the publishing world. This experience was a quantum leap in the library's history, especially since she did not publish many books, but her main interest was printing and publishing James Joyce's famous work, Ulysses.
