May '68. Four friends converge on Paris, the city of love, revolution... and reading. Fran, DeNanielle, Charmian and Sylva share a passion for shoes and manifestos, but when their holiday is disrupted by protests in the street and the promise of utopian futures, they face a series of puzzling questions. Who is the mysterious Guy de Guy, and why does he hate books so much? What is happening behind the counter at the Post Office? Will the publishing industry ever nail distribution? What lurks beneath the manhole covers? And what will be the legacy of this 'situation'? 'A charming tale of graffiti and carnival, with the warmth of a true moral compass' - Ginger R. Squires
