Book synopsis

The memoirs of Ernest A Forssgren, the young Swede who served as Marcel Proust's last valet, have never before been published in full. This book presents the complete text (which was written in English), with an introduction and annotations by the distinguished Proust scholar William C Carter. The memoirs, along with other previously unknown documents relating to the Proust household and to Forssgren, shed new light on key periods in Proust's life and greatly augment what is known about Forssgren and his relationship with Proust. The publication of "The Memoirs of Ernest A Forssgren, Marcel Proust's Swedish Valet" constitutes an important contribution to Proust scholarship.
