Flâneurizing thru Walter Benjamin's Arcades

Rusty Congaree

Benjamin pouring over books

for sale the bodies, the voices, what will never be sold

industrial luxury sudden rainshowers a place of refuge the flâneur & the weather

successful vaudevilles □ Mythology □ A glover □ the signs are formed from antlers, lobsters, bird kidneys.

The boutique became the magasin stanzas of color Diable always beseiged by carriages

two floors of apartments an enormous glass-pained roof strolling took place Passage du Désir leading to a house of ill-repute

marble floor shone a beauty required a fortune (using sheep) the first experiments with the guillotine

a poisoner killed inhalation of toxic fumes reckless art enters the service of the butchers

19th-century Parisian arcade
