Un fallo rovesciato su una celebre porta d'ingresso, un prete che benedice gli animali, i pompieri viticultori, un chiostro nascosto, un albero in una chiesa, un rifugio antiatomico sotto Gare de l'Est, un autentico faro bretone vicino Montparnasse, i resti insospettabili di case chiuse, i monogrammi reali dissimulati nella Cour Carrée del Lumie, un santo che benedice gli automobilisti, l'esposizione della corona di spine di Cristo, un quadrante solare disegnato da Dalì, una giostra preistorica, le palme ferite durante la guerra, i fori di proiettile al ministero, un misterioso monumento franco-massone sullo Champ-de-Mars, le piante "religiose" nel giardino del curato, una sfera in oro massiccio vicino ai deputati, un tempio cinese in un parcheggio, l'impatto della Bièvre sulla geografia parigina, una blockhaus nel bois de Boulogne... Lontano dalla folla e dai consueti cliché, Parigi conserva tesori nascosti che rivela solo ad abitanti e turisti pronti ad uscire dai sentieri battuti. Una guida per coloro che pensavano di conoscere bene Parigi e desiderano scoprire il volto nascosto della città.

It was September 1995 and Thomas Jonglez was in Peshawar, the northern Pakistani city 20 kilometres from the tribal zone he was to visit a few days later. It occurred to him that he should record the hidden aspects of his native city, Paris, which he knew so well. During his seven-month trip back home from Beijing, the countries he crossed took in Tibet (entering clandestinely, hidden under blankets in an overnight bus), Iran and Kurdistan. He never took a plane but travelled by boat, train or bus, hitchhiking, cycling, on horseback or on foot, reaching Paris just in time to celebrate Christmas with the family.
On his return, he spent two fantastic years wandering the streets of the capital to gather material for his first “secret guide”, written with a friend. For the next seven years he worked in the steel industry until the passion for discovery overtook him. He launched Jonglez Publishing in 2003 and moved to Venice three years later. In 2013, in search of new adventures, the family left Venice and spent six months travelling to Brazil, via North Korea, Micronesia, the Solomon Islands, Easter Island, Peru and Bolivia. He now lives in Berlin with his wife and three children. Jonglez Publishing produces a range of titles in nine languages, released in 35 countries.Le informazioni nella sezione "Su questo libro" possono far riferimento a edizioni diverse di questo titolo.

paperback. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
