….and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good.

(I’ve always liked Genesis. Especially the pre-Phil Collins era…)

Verily it was good, too.

The Lux family has left an indelible mark on Gonsenheim.

This is Ulrich Lux, who runs “Papier und mehr” (Paper and More – lifestyle magazines, ribbons, elegant wrapping paper, cards, girls stuff) in the Breite Strasse in Gonso. (Think Champs Elysee minus the Arc de Triomphe with a tram running down it and you’re close…)

His sister Susanne runs “Nimmerland”, the excellent kiddies bookshop at the end of the road and his parents ran the eponymous bookshop (for grown-ups and kiddies) just across the road from his place until his father’s death in 2005.

Let there be light indeed…..
