FIRST LINE: “Marcel Proust (1871-1922) composed A la recherche du temps perdu between 1913 (the year of the publication of Du côté de chez Swann by Grasset) and 1922.”

LAST LINE: “Still, the cult of art might be the least, the most childlike, of illusions, the most ‘natural’ form of sleep-walking to offer an abiding guarantee of the life of the psyche.”
