This, the first audio-biography of Marcel Proust, tells the story of one of the world's most original and admired literary geniuses. From his youth in the salons of Belle Epoque Paris, we follow his progress through to his later years when, as a near recluse, he writes through the nights in his cork-lined bedroom.In his great autobiographical novel Remembrance of Things Past, separating fact from fiction becomes a fascinating game of literary detection.
