Summary/Abstract: In 2019, an obscure Paris press PhB éditions published a small (86 pages) book titled À Paris, égaré. Bruno Schulz, août 1938. The author is Dominique Hérody, known before mainly as a draughtsman and author of comic books, as well as founder of the journal Le Paresseux and designer of some books. Fascinated with Schulz’s fiction or perhaps even more with his graphic works, Hérody, referring to scarce and enigmatic information about the Paris visit of the author of Cinnamon Shops – decided to reconstruct that episode in his life, supplementing his knowledge drawn from the French and English language sources with his own conjectures and pure phantasy.
