Hardcover, 208pp., 18x21cm., col. ills., new. ISBN 9782723469982. Qu'est-ce donc qu'un droguiste de marine ? A la fois marchand de couleurs, marchand d'odeurs, pourvoyeur de recettes aux noms imprononcables et aux vertus seculaires, il officie dans un entrepot, a deux pas des quais. Ballots d'etoupe, fauberts et minahouets, il debite de l'aussiere de chanvre, du blanc de baleine, des pierres d'alun, de la terre de Sommieres, du goudron de Norvege, des pains de savon d'Alep, des sacs de sel d'oseille, des bocaux de cire, des bidons de vernis, des pots de peinture, des flacons de popote, des paquets de teinture, et toutes especes de produits antiques et solennels. Aux beaux jours, quand sa porte est ouverte, il hume l'odeur iodee du large, si proche. Quand il est enferme dans son antre, il ne cesse d'imaginer cet ocean au coeur de son existence de boutiquier. Le droguiste de marine est un ravitailleur de reves : laissez-le vous conter son abecedaire. 710 g. Seller Inventory # 30870
