"Evelyne Bloch-Dano's Madame Proust provides a wealth of new details about Marcel Proust's formative years and illustrates, as never before, the importance of his Jewish heritage. It does so by concentrating on the most important love relationship in Proust's life: the great affection he had for his mother. Carefully researched, richly documented, and skillfully translated by Alice Kaplan, Bloch-Dano's book deserves to be read by all who are interested in the life and works of Marcel Proust." - William C. Carter, author of Marcel Proust: A Life"
