Three books. Proust, LETTERS TO HIS MOTHER and CITIES OF THE PLAIN. And A READER'S HANDBOOK TO PROUST by P.A. Spalding.
A few #Proust finds from Pegasus Berkeley.
I see the old Modern Library editions often, usually without dust jackets & / or in rough shape. CITIES looks great for being almost 100 years old!
Handbook by P.A. Spalding (1952) aligns with 12 (!) volume Chatto & Windus edition of The Search.
you are among the angels; a bringer of life. With friends and lens like these, truly we fly from star to star.

Happy birthday, D.J. Enright. Thanks for giving us an edition of Proust that honours both him and Scott Moncrieff, and that in some nifty, unobtrusive ways (fodder for another day) actually betters Tadié. #Proust #Proustsky
Last night, before going to sleep, I read the passage in "Swann's Way" where he eats the tea soaked madeleine and his psychic world explodes. Can't wait to get home from work today and reread it to my family.

Had a little exchange with @poemakontsa.bsky.social about why I abhor Alain de Botton's How Proust Can Change Your Life. #Proust #Proustsky
If I say (if I declare) that he wrote one of the worst Proust-adjacent books I've ever read, will he block me? Please please please, I've never been blocked by anyone half-famous! #Proust #Proustsky
Last night I watched Chantal Akerman's La Captive. This one I will definitely have to see again. I could not separate it from my #Proust readings-- wondered if it really worked in a contemporary (as of 2000) setting; if casual viewers would "get" it really without lengthy Albertine context,

#Proust : un fonds inédit à la BNF.
La @labnf.bsky.social lance une souscription pour faire entrer dans ses collections un immense fonds d'archives et de manuscrits de Proust encore inexploré. L'occasion pour son président, Gilles Pécout, de rappeler les missions de l'institution.

5 millions € recherchés pour un fonds Marcel Proust. L’État active le mécénat d’entreprise pour réunir la somme. Enjeu : préserver et acquérir des archives liées à l’auteur. Un signal fort sur le financement privé du patrimoine littéraire. #Proust #Mécénat
Prove this place is good for culture and post a good book cover. #Proust #Proustsky
A book entitled "Paintings in Proust", by Eric Karpeles. Cover art shows a detail image from a 19th century painting with a lady seated lady at a table. She is dressed in black, wearing a big black hat, arms resting on the table. Her head is turned our way and she is smiling.
A book cover with the title "Harlem Renaissance: Art of Black America". Cover art has a bright yellow-green background and shows a black man with gray hair seated backward on a wooden chair. He is in three-quarter profile with arms folded and resting on the chair, which is bright red. He's wearing a black vest and pants, a white shirt and a dark tie. He is looking slightly to the side, and appears to be in thought.
A book entitled "Polynesian Tattooing", by Alan Taylor. Cover shows a 19th century color image of a balding Maori man with extensive symmetrical blue face tattoos on his chin, nose, temples and around his eyes. He is seen in partial profile, looking ahead. He is also wearing long earrings from his pierced earlobes, and a necklace with a pendant carved stone which is decorated with a face.
A book entitled "Ascending Chaos: The Art of Masami Teraoka 1966-2006". The cover art shows a rather nightmarish scene - four suitably chaotic figures (two male, two female), plus a baby, and an orange-spotted octopus. They are all in a swirl in close proximity, and apparently underwater. One female has an old-fashioned, golden plate-style halo, the other, who may be a ghost, appears benevolent but has two bolts of fire shooting from her head. One of the men is swimming, with his long black hair streaming behind him. The other man is lying down and may be deceased. The baby is partially hidden, and appears to be held gently by the ghost-woman.

# Proust Drei, ode fünf, manchmal 10 Seiten pro Tag. Ob ich fertig lese ist mir egal. Hauptsache ich kommentiere jede Idee, die ich darin finde – Genuss. Ich erhoffe mir, keine Distanz mehr zwischen dem Werk und mir zu haben, und es erscheint mir so das dem so ist.

Prachtige zin: een werkelijke ontdekkingsreis ligt niet in het zoeken naar nieuwe landschappen maar in het kijken met andere ogen #Proust #dagelijksfeestje🥳 #dag1514
I had forgotten that after the famous passage on la #madeleine, #Proust had this beautiful description of #linden / #tilleul (not lime as the old English translation has!!)

Me, smiling goofily, with the six-volume In Search of Lost Time by Marcel Proust, translated by C.K. Scott Moncrieff and Terence Kilmartin, revised by D.J. Enright
A long but truly entrancing journey ... eight months later, I've happily met the #InSearchofLostTime reading challenge. #Proust #MarcelProust #TranslatedLiterature
Qui se rappelle de l’odeur des pochette Panini, quand on les ouvrait ?

Makes me think of #Proust, existing in his stinky soundproofed bedchamber, a wonderful wreck writing Remembrance of Things Past in feverish isolation.
