Marcel Proust,Harold Augenbraum
For the centennial of ,Swann's Way,: the most complete volume of Proust's poetry ever assembled, in a gorgeous deluxe edition,Â As a young man, Proust wrote both poetry and prose. Even after he embarked on his masterful ,In Search of Lost Time, at the age of thirty-eight, he never stopped writing poetry. His verse is often playful, filled with affection and satire, and is peppered with witty barbs at friends and people in his social circle of aristocrats, writers, musicians, and courtesans.Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  Few of the poems collected here under the editorship of Harold Augenbraum, founder of the Proust Society of America, have ever been published in book form or translated into English until now. In this dual-language edition of new translations, Augenbraum has brought together nineteen renowned poets and poetry translators to bring Proust's exuberant verse back to life.
