description: Marcel Proust, Sa Vie, Son Oeuvre was originally published in 1925 by Simon Kra in Paris. In 1927 Alfred A. Knopf published an English translation by Hamish and Sheila Miles in New York. Pierre-Quint augmented the French edition in 1928 and 1936, and this was published by the Editions du Sagittaire, who retain the French copyright. The present edition reprints the Miles translation together with the author's later additions, translated here for the first time by Kurt Weinberg, and a new preface by Germaine Brée, placing the biography in its historical context. An archive of Pierre-Quint's papers and books was established in 1981 at the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris.Not for sale in the British Commonwealth, excepting Canada.
