Marcel Proust remembers his childhood readings - those done by the fireside, curled up in an armchair, and that no one came to disturb. Those, again, made at night, when it was impossible for him to leave his heroes. According to Proust, reading must remain a magical act throughout life, a source of emotion. A true key to reading and understanding 'In Search of Lost Time', this text, which served as a preface to the translation of Ruskin's 'Sesame and Lilies', already sets in place what would become Proustian poetics.
Valentin Louis Georges Eugène Marcel Proust was a French novelist, literary critic, and essayist best known for his novel À la recherche du temps perdu, which was published in seven volumes between 1913 and 1927 and totals around 1.25 million words. He is considered by critics and writers to be one of the most influential authors of the twentieth century.
