Marcel Proust: An English Tribute
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
|
"One wonders what sort of man Proust really was. We know he was a great friend of Léon Daudet—two men, one would have thought, as the poles asunder. We know that he slept by day, and lived and worked by night: we know that he was ill and neurasthenic. We know also that nothing was hidden from him, and that he had an infinite power of expression. He was a-81- very human being with the brain and the pen of a recording angel."--Reginald Turner in Marcel Proust: An English Tribute (1923) by Charles Kenneth Scott-Moncrieff and Joseph Conrad |
