Discreetly based in Anderlecht, from time to time les éditions 632 exclusively publish poetry. Until proven otherwise.
And their name, tell me about that?
It came to them from a sumptuous poem, entitled ?Escorial II?, in which Pedro Salinas decided to ?compter au lieu de rêver? (count instead of dreaming) (en vez de soñar, contar?). And to add up, six hundred and twelve windows in the western face of the Escurial, five white clouds, three beloved people and twelve strokes of noon. ?¡ Qué felicidad igual / a seiscientos treinta y dos !? (What equal happiness in those six hundred and thirty two!) cries the poet, thus answering your question.

L'Âne qui butine is a cross-border (France-Belgium) micro-publishing house founded in 1999, with beautiful, imaginative origins. The publishing house creates works which can deviate from the traditional form of books: a ball of paper, a suspended book…
At the cost of the publisher, L'Âne qui butine has published, to this day, almost 100 authors (from France, Belgian Wallonie and Flanders, Quebec, Switzerland…). All of our authors have a poetic attitude and an air of absolute bliss faced with L'Âne (!) … the perfection of the swarm?
The world of L'Âne is also, and especially, the weaving together of meetings which articulate the intermingling between text and image, object and book, line and page.
Sometimes, L'Âne reveals itself to the world through the means of fleeting, poetic actions: in trees, near a spring, the author of multidimensional exhibitions, themed meals, shocking readings (or even explosive…)
