This French Town Has ATMs for Short Stories
And they’re free.
Grenoble, a city at the foot of the French Alps, has eight new ATMs propped up around town—outside of the town hall, libraries, and tourist center. Instead of dispensing cash, though, the machines spit out short stories.
The tales unspool on sheets of paper measuring 8 by 60 centimeters—about the size of a receipt you can fold and tuck into your wallet.
