How Proust Can Change Your Life

Synopsis

A bestselling author draws on the work of one of history’s most important writers to show us how to best live life in a book that’s "delightfully original. A self-help book in the deepest sense of the term" (the new york times). Alain de botton combines two unlikely genres—literary biography and self-help manual—in the hilarious and unexpectedly practical how proust can change your life. Who would have thought that marcel proust, one of the most important writers of our century, could provide us with such a rich source of insight into how best to live life?
