Flaneuse; why loaf around going aimlessly?
Simple, because flânerie is an art of urban wandering that allows us to explore our cities with freedom, curiosity, and above all, without hurry! A journey from the birth of flânerie to contemporary idleness.
Alongside the figures of flâneurs such as Edgar Allan Poe, Charles Baudelaire or Marcel Proust there have been and, there still are, many flâneuses whose walks have established a strong connection with their cities, exercising their creative and emotional freedom through subjective exploration of urban spaces.
From George Sand to Virginia Woolf, from Sophie Calle to Zadie Smith, flâneuses of yesterday and today can inspire you for your own personal walk around you, through the streets of the cities you know.
Alone or in the company of other flâneuses, the choice is yours.
It is enough to be willing to abandon the daily routine and let thoughts roam free to draw new perspectives and new looks at the places around us.
Flâneuse! is a book to read but it is also a guide with which to experience through exercises, games and writing the drift of walking and the exploration of flânerie.
