Proust Among the Stars

The first book to address everyone who relishes reading Proust and wants to know more about how his writing works. This is a matchless close reading of a literary masterpiece, In Search of Lost Time, and a lesson in how to read the Great Books profitably and pleasurably. ‘Read this excellent book’ Stuart Jeffries, Guardian ‘Very refreshing… a splendidly tough-minded and generous introduction’ Gabriel Josipovici, Independent ‘Brilliant’ Peter Conrad, Observer ‘A splendidly thought-filled book’ Er
