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.
