Visit "The Perecquien heritage", in the Père-Lachaise district

Thursday, October 20, at 2:30 PM

Go to the main entrance of the cemetery, at the top of rue de la Roquette (20th arr.).

Understanding Georges Perec is an attempt to decipher a writing imbued with mystery, playing with constraints, and one of the most singular works in world literature. It is also about exploring the "other places" of this son of Polish Jewish immigrants who liked to walk in the city. Two separate visits, one around the park of Belleville, the other in the district of Père-Lachaise, allow to reconstitute the "Perec puzzle".

I participate 

Both courses require good physical condition. It is not necessary to register for both tours.

Price: €14/€8 (reduced and Friends of the mahJ) for each visit. Online booking on mahj.org
