Gallimard "Le livre des rêves" Square Notebook

The Gallimard “Le livre des rêves” Square Notebook is inspired by Jack Kerouac’s Le livre des rêves (1977) — a work that captures the boundary between sleep and waking, imagination and reality. As Kerouac wrote: “I dragged my weary carcass out of bed, and through eyelids swollen with sleep, I scribbled as fast as I could in my little dream notebook the slightest scrap of memory.” This notebook invites you to do the same — to record, still half-asleep, your nocturnal odysseys, fleeting visions, and the dreams yet to be lived.
