Here in Foxborough, not far from the Massachusetts coastline, we are preparing for Hurricane Irene. However neither storm nor earthquake can keep us from Proust, who received his own share of PR this week.
First, there was a description with photos of the famous Cork Lined Room. A Visit To The Cork Lined Room . Fortunately, the blogger took time to sample some restaurants. Proust would approve.
Next, there's a Proust meetup in L.A. How cool is that? Marcel would be intrigued. I Love Proust in LA. Unfortunately, Foxborough is too far away from Tinseltown to make it practical or economical to join the group, alas.
Next, some sad news. The director of "Time Regained," Raul Ruiz has died. He just had a new movie out too. Raul Ruiz dies .
Your faithful correspondent has been reading Proust again, still in Balbec and La Raspelier, and the humor is lovely and subtle and I am enjoying it ever so much. Proust is so sly and so witty.
