It's the first time I've ever seen any drawings by him and, yes, they are bad but they made me feel weirdly sentimental. These silly, thoughtless, charming doodles...

A nice place to visit when in Paris with an interesting history. They have loads of antique Russian books and the space itself is quite cozy.

The staff was understably confused by the fact that I don't speak Russian... But after babbling about my love for Turguenev & being able to tell that the bust they had there was Pushkin's they seemed to think I was okay enough.

The library sells totes and postcards to support itself but they also accept online donations.
