«La première gorgée de bière et autres plaisirs minuscules» is a collection of prose poems by Philippe Delerm (Gallimard, paperback, in French).
Philippe Delerm turns the smallest moments into literary material: drinking the first beer, perceiving the smell of wet earth, or feeling the warmth of the sun. These are everyday scenes, observed attentively and written as short prose pieces that invite one to pause over the insignificant and to recognize the happiness hidden in the ordinary.
The work was originally published in 1997; this special edition illustrated by Jean-Philippe Delhomme appeared in 2017 in the collection L'Arpenteur.
A book for readers of poetic prose and French literature, and for those who enjoy pausing over the small details of everyday routine.
