Luxembourg Gardens Book Walk | Paris in July with Elvire de Brissac

In this summer episode of The Ritual of Reading, I take you along on a gentle walk through one of Paris’s most beloved parks: the Luxembourg Gardens. Our literary companion is Elvire de Brissac, whose book Le Long du Luxembourg paints the history of the gardens not through timelines, but through stories—anecdotes, characters, and quiet moments that bring centuries to life.As we walk, we meet Marie de Médicis, trace the legacy of the palace she built, and reflect on how reading can change the way we experience the world around us. This isn’t just about history—it’s about how a book can shift your perspective, even on a familiar path.✨ Download your free Summer Reading Ritual guide → https://theritualofreading.com/the-summer-reading-ritual-2025/A seasonal companion full of literary pairings, florals, and slow rituals to enrich your summer—both on and off the page.—If you enjoy this literary walk, consider following the podcast for more episodes that blend books, beauty, and creative living.#BookWalk #TheRitualofReading #LuxembourgGardens #ParisPodcast #SummerReading #ElviredeBrissac #LiteraryTravel #ReadingInParis
