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.
