Skeslien Charles makes this history the armature of the novel. It is best known for remaining open during the years of the German occupation, even delivering books in secret to its Jewish subscribers. The ALP, too, has a digital collection on its website documenting its rich history. In the last one year, many libraries and archives have speeded up their digitization projects, archiving even their own histories in the process. Like its contemporary, Sylvia Beach’s Shakespeare & Company, the ALP’s legacy is spangled with important names from the American-European intellectual landscape. Established after World War I, the library, since the signing of the Armistice, has played an integral part in promoting Anglo-American literature overseas.
