In 'Elogio del bistrot', Marc Augé explores the atmosphere and culture of bistros, those urban spaces that France has exported to the world. Augé analyzes the bistro as a place of ephemeral social relations, where the action of exchange is more important than its purpose. He describes the life and emotions that overflow in these places, where conversations are often superficial and gestures and glances are fleeting. The bistro, more than a simple image, is an object of the urban landscape with its own history and geography, a model of civilization that now also has its ethnology.
