Deconstructing O,

[Mad Lews]

Roissy France is 30 odd Kilometers NE of Paris near Charles De Gaul airport. De Gaul airport did not exist in 1950 which was when O was written and published. The Town was out in the country, now it is a midsized city.

Chateau and Chateau de Roissy societies are abundant and can be searched for on line. A google search of Roissy France will yield a lot of aeroport info.

Yours

Some online friends of ours took in the locations as part of a holiday in France. They discovered that today, Samur (the location of the Domme's mansion) has a jazz festival as its claim to fame. He took a photo of her posing in a Festival teeshirt beside the road sign saying ROISSY, and she made Xmas cards of it with the message "My Master took me to Roissy and Samur and all I got was a lousy teeshirt."
