Praise for Alain de Botton’s How Proust Can Change Your Life
“Ingenious…charming, erudite…an amusing homage to a literary genius whose utter lack of talent for living becomes a tender inspiration.” —Elle
“Delightfully original…. As well as being criticism, biography, literary history and a reader’s guide to Proust’s masterpiece, How Proust Can Change Your Life is a self-help book in the deepest sense of the term.” –The New York Times
“Curious, humorous, didactic and dazzling…. It contains more human interest and play of fancy than most fiction.” –The New Yorker
“A witty, elegant book that helps us learn what reading is for.” —Doris Lessing
