Welcome to the Senlis bookshop "Le Verbe et l'Objet"!
Located on the charming Place Henri IV in the heart of the old town of Senlis, push open the door of this colourful and welcoming boutique. Inside, beams, terracotta tiles, stonework and a glass roof opening onto a flower-filled courtyard welcome you into a warm and cosy atmosphere.
Browse the wooden shelves of the large waxed bookcases in search of the next book you're going to devour. On the "pocket table", you'll find literary classics and the latest paperback releases. From children to young adults, the children's section is well-stocked with recent selections by specialist authors. In the comics boudoir, the little orange velvet armchair not only reflects the colour of the shop front, but also invites you to relax for a few moments in this cosy, intimate space.
The shop also stocks stationery, writing and fine art supplies, as well as a number of gift items made by local craftspeople.
