"Proust is less the subject of Rose's pleasurable, rambling memoir than its guiding spirit, whose wisdom and worldview Rose invokes as she reviews the travails and satisfactions of a year in her life."
Kirkus, 08/15/1997
Review:"[A] book that uses Proust's name as a piece of elegant and rather deceptive scaffolding holding up a personal memoir, one which might just as well have been called 'The Year of Reading Dostoevsky' for all the insight it gives us into Proust's work....Though so many recent memoirs...have been catalogs of domestic horror, Rose's details a completely ordinary existence in so far as one can ever use the term 'ordinary' to describe the life of a prosperous East Coast intellectual at the close of the 20th century."
Alain De Botton, Los Angeles Times Book Review, 10/05/1997

The Year of Reading Proust (Paperback) (ISBN: 9781582430553) Rose, Phyllis;Phyllis Rose Quantity Available: 10
Book Description: Counterpoint,U.S., United States, 1999. Paperback. Book Condition: New. New edition. 200 x 139 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery ***** Print on Demand *****. A brilliant and original memoir of midlifea writing life, a reading life, a womans lifeby the distinguished author of Parallel Lives. Phyllis Rose, a biographer, essayist, and literary critic, finally got around to reading Proust in middle age. As Rose learned, you dont have to live through an unhappy childhood or celebrity adulthood to write an autobiography. You just need patience, candor, and a close-to-scientific passion for truth. She begins to learn how to navigate the intricacies of Prousts novels, at the same time reflecting on the course of her own life.With striking honesty, Rose writes about marriage, friendship, childbirth, and her own mortality. As she moves from daily experience to what shes read and back again, she illuminates how the close reading of her own life reveals truths for the rest of us and how such a subtle celebration of books can help us live.
