A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A KIOSK
French newspaper kiosks might have evolved but they still play a key role in the life of Paris. And there’s one that has become a star in its own right - Le Kiosque de Paris, in front of Le Bon Marché. It’s run by the brothers Médéric and Nicolas Bogo, who are following in the footsteps of their great-grandparents, grandparents and parents. And it’s not just the line-up of titles that pulls in so many regulars - and passers-by - but also the siblings' rich knowledge about the titles that they sell and the time they take to talk to their customers.
