Finding Marcel Proust: Paris marks centenary of the writer’s death

'An exhibition at the Musée Carnavalet places Proust in his Belle Époque milieu'

Lara Marlowe at The Irish Times.

"Glittering soirees are recorded in paintings of the period, among the 280 works of art, photographs, manuscripts, letters, video and audio recordings on exhibit in 'Marcel Proust, a Parisian Novel”', which marks last year’s sesquicentennial of Proust’s birth and this year’s centenary of his death, at the Musée Carnavalet until April 10th."

See Proust, Swann in Love, from Remembrance of Things Past, translated by C. K. Scott Moncrief and Terence Kilmartin, in Great Books of the Western World (second edition, 60 Vol., 1990) volume 59.
