Allée Samuel BECKETT

The Allée Samuel Beckett is a narrow, tree-lined path that cuts through the quiet fourteenth arrondissement. It marks the spot where the playwright lived in a small apartment during the nineteen-sixties. Beckett preferred this unassuming location because it offered him anonymity and a plain view of the changing seasons. The city named the walkway after him in nineteen-ninety-five, six years after his death, turning a private route into a public acknowledgement of the man who famously spent his life avoiding public attention.
