No unique creative experience can be fully grasped without exploring its hidden subjective world—those secret chambers shrouded in mystery and secrets, in bitter and beautiful memories, in harsh and rich experiences that shaped and refined the writer’s self. We are forever grateful for the dazzling insights that great writers have shed on the backstage of their lives and their inner concerns, whether through autobiography or personal letters. When the letters concern one of the most important novelists of the twentieth century, Marcel Proust, we are faced with a truly precious journey that makes reading them an exciting and rewarding experience, given the privacy, richness, and human depth they reveal. We will read the author of In Search of Lost Time as never before, and we will discover the other side of the famous writer: a portrait of the ordinary man, immersed in the details of his life and its ups and downs: his struggle to write, his battle with illness, the daily obstacles he faced, and his skill in dealing with all of this to achieve his dreams. This is an astonishing journey of glory and humiliation. Here, Proust, beyond the strict calculations of criticism and the standards of journalism and scholarship, presents a humanity that oscillates in a deep and harsh brazier called life.

Prisoner of Heaven
After the shadow of the wind and the angel game, I ended my strange meeting with Carlos Zafon in the third part of the Tomb of Forgotten Books series in this piece that I read while trying to understand what was going on in his head, which wanted the prisoner of heaven to tell us the dark nights of Barcelona from the window of its prisons, that prison that embraced Martin for a long time and through which he excelled in writing The Game of the Angel, which was the hero of that novel David Martin and Isabella, and we got to know their end, which was not confirmed by the lines. The writer also explains that what we can consider a coincidence with us may be wisely studied and what we interact with with all honesty may be fake and obsolete as the first boot, the past is just images stuck in our heads and just a glance of it returns to expose itself, and opens new cracks in our hearts, pushing you to search and explore what the truth is and to what extent it can comfort you or in any proportion that may make you a wreckage between the legs, yet the search for it is The way of salvation,
