Bilingual French-English editionThe Paris of Marcel ProustDe la plaine Monceau aux Champs-Élysées, le Paris de Marcel Proust est essentiellement celui des beaux quartiers. Né à Auteuil, ayant vécu boulevard Malesherbes ou boulevard Haussmann, l'écrivain situe son œuvre dans le Paris de la Belle Époque. Les appartements cossus donnent sur des avenues plantées d'arbres, les enfants s'amusent dans d'élégants jardins et les réceptions se tiennent dans des hôtels particuliers. Swann, Odette ou la duchesse de Guermantes fréquentent Maxim's, le bois de Boulogne ou les cafés animés des Grands Boulevards. Ces décors et les figures qui ont inspiré le romancier, les voici en images, révélant un Paris 1900 à la fois réel et imaginaire: le monde de Proust. From the Plaine Monceau to the Champs-Élysées, the Paris of Marcel Proust essentially encompasses the high-end districts. Born in Auteuil, having lived on the Boulevard Malesherbes, as well as the Boulevard Haussmann, the writer's work is embedded within the Paris of the Belle Époque. The Posh apartments look out onto tree-lined streets, children play in elegant gardens and receptions are held in private mansions. Swann, Odette or the Duchesse de Guermantes all socialize at Maxim's, the Bois de Boulogne or the bustling cafés along the Grands Boulevards. These settings and the different characters, who inspired the famous novelist,are hereby presented in evocative images, revealing Paris during the early 1900s, both real and imaginary: the world of Proust.
