Proust readings and Proustian musings: tonight, a little tongue-in-cheek phrase, as clever as it is convoluted.

Proust readings and Proustian musings: tonight, a little tongue-in-cheek phrase, as clever as it is convoluted. 🖐🏻👃🏻😝

These are the closing words of Jean-François Revel’s (1924–2006) essay, entitled “On Proust”, which was published in 1960. 🤓☝🏻

📌 “To speak of an author is to express, by drawing on their work, one’s own thoughts on the subjects they have addressed.” 📌

You can find this essay, which has now been republished, in the Cahiers rouges collection @editionsgrasset 📕✨
