Deyrolle

In the story · The Surrealists' party

One night in the past, Gil finds himself at a party among the stuffed animals of this old natural-history shop, where he meets the Surrealists and pitches a film idea to a puzzled Luis Buñuel. Deyrolle, with its rooms full of taxidermy, butterflies and shells upstairs, is still open.
