Paintings in Proust: A Visual Companion to 'In Search of Lost Time' Eric Karpeles

In Search of Lost Time by Marcel Proust is one of the most profoundly visual works in Western literature, a novel devoted to the description of people, their manners and their arts. This book celebrates the close relationship between the visual and literary arts in Proust's masterpiece. Eric Karpeles has identified and located all of the paintings to which Proust makes exact reference, and over 200 are reproduced here in full colour. With accompanying texts drawn from the Moncrieff/Kilmartin/Enright translation of In Search of Lost Time, this book is an essential addition to the libraries of Proustians worldwide and a handsome volume in its own right.

Paintings in Proust Bewertungen

'Fortunately you do not need to have read a page of Proust to appreciate this beautiful book' - Daily Telegraph
'Authoritative, intelligent, amusing (don't miss the footnotes, 'Paintings in Proust' can be enjoyed without prior exposure to Proust - though as with so many things in life, the more you know, the more fun you'll have' - New York Observer
'I look forward to the day when I read the novel again with Mr Karpeles's book beside me' - The Art Newspaper
