195373434London: Thames and Hudson 1953. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. Limited to 500 copies signed by the translator of which this is number 193. Additionally an autograph letter signed ALS by Gerard Hopkins is laid in. "Covering as they do the period from 1902 when Proust was thirty-one until 1920 these frank and often demanding confidences afford us fascinating glimpses into the mind of a writer who having already achieved a measure of literary success is in the throes of composing his chef d'oeuvre - a work unique in the annals of literature. They throw fresh light on Proust's technique and provide a number of keys to the still hotly debated problems set by that most subjective of masterpieces - A la Recherche du Temps Perdu." Octavo: 169 p. with 8 tipped-in illustrations. Original white cloth binding with gilt and red stamping. A bit of fading along the spine and extremities. The dust jacket is browned more so along the spine; otherwise very good. Thames and Hudson hardcover books

"Early in his career Marcel Proust who greatly admired John Ruskin published translations of two works by the English critic -- La Bible d'Amiens 1900 and Sesame et les Lys 1906. He contributed a substantial essay as a preface to each book and provided discursive notes that were themselves often small essays. Rare now even in their French versions the preface to La Bible d'Amiens and the notes to both books have never before been available in English. In bringing them together with the preface to Sesame et les Lys this new book completes the translation into English of the important critical writings of Proust." dj Translated and edited by Jean Autret William Burford and Phillip J.
