Paperback. With "A La Recherche Du Temps Perdu" Marcel Proust achieved a perfect rendering of life in art, of the past created through memory. It is both a portrait of the artist and a discovery of the aesthetic by which the portrait is painted, and it was to have a seminal influence on 20th-century literature. This title presents the life of this writer. Num Pages: 816 pages, 1. BIC Classification: 2ADF; BG; DSBH; DSK. Category: (G) General (US: Trade); (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 164 x 235 x 43.
