The house of Catherine is unique. You won't find it anywhere else in Paris, I'll bet on that. It's like a museum, constructed by one person who has learned how to live, read, write, and in the most authentic way. If you wish to be inspired, this is the place. If you don't mind 80 steps up, that is. For us no problem, for the elderly, maybe. Also, if you are quite tall, like we both are, the apartment might be experienced a bit narrow. You have to bend over a little in the door posts. Same goes for the bed. It's quite small. At least, we found it was the case with us. Catherine supplied us straight with an air bed that I could use. My boyfriend (2 meters tall) slept perfectly and diagonally in the very comfortable bed after that, and me near the window in the living room. Regular bohémiens, like Catherine herself. Everything in this apartment reflects art and literature. You will find that her bookcase contains all world literature, and to my own delight the female writers are much represented.
