Editorial Reviews:
Review:"An overwhelmingly comprehensive biography....Tadiż excels at tracing the relationships between Proust and his many friends....He is less effective at recreating the atmosphere of the places in which Proust lived and traveled....Still, the definitive biography of Proust and an illuminating companion to his novels."
Kirkus, 06/15/2000
Review:"Mr. Tadiż's...biography [is] quite devoid of any compelling insight into Proust's character or work....[H]e has tried to avoid 'the tedium of anecdotes that are too specific'--a decidedly bizarre approach for any biographer, never mind one writing the life of an author whose entire work was grounded in a specificity of social and psychological detail.... Although Mr. Tadiż has done a persuasive job of explicating the intellectual influences on Proust's work--from Balzac and Zola through Ruskin, Wagner and Carlyle--he has failed in this volume to give the reader an appreciation of REMEMBRANCE OF THINGS PAST or the workings of the novelist's imagination."
