In the story · Bretodeau's box: the phone box and the bar
In this old wine bar on Rue Mouffetard, Amélie eavesdrops as Dominique Bretodeau tells how a mysterious stranger returned the box of keepsakes he hid as a boy, and how it has changed his outlook. Earlier she had lured him to a ringing phone box at the north end of the street, where it meets Rue Clovis, so that he would find the box.
