Marcel Proust: A Life

Aa readable and sensitive biography
This is a dangerous book. If you have not read In Search of Lost Time in all of its infamous 3000 pages and you pick up this book, beware. Chances are, like me, you will find yourself juggling this great biography, Vol 1. of the Search, and Roger Shattuck's Proust's "Way, A guide to In Search of Lost Time" all at the same time. Carter's biography is the first comprehensive one in 40 years ...

Excellent introduction to TEM
In the 70's and 80's the book by Hirsch et al. was the TEM reference tome, and Eddington's book the applications manual. Time has marched on, and this book is the new replacement for both! Carter and Williams wrote a very easy to read, yet well detailed, text and reference for TEM. They cover quite literally everything, in just the right level of detail for 1st or 2nd year grad students. This ...

Stepping inside the mind of Marcel Proust: An Inquiry
Marcel Proust is still somewhat of an enigma from the past century. A man whose hefty multi-volume opus 'A la Recherche Du Temps Perdu' continues to delight, puzzle, stimulate all the arts even today, Proust has had many biographies and treatises written but few supply the sheer pleasure of this perfectly designed little volume. In Proust's time he had two questionnaires, separated by time, ...
Proust in Love

Yale University Press, 2006
The Lost Paradise
Although other studies of Proust and the nature of love have been published before, for the most part in French, William C. Carter's fascinating follow-up to his monumental (and standard-bearing) biography of the author is a much-needed work on an endlessly fascinating topic. Proust was a man who may have written a 3000+-page novel, but who also hid much. He was a man of many disguises, and was ...

Very good for learning
This book is a shortened version of "Learning and Practising Econometrics (1993)", which itself is a shortened version of "The Theory and Practice of Econometrics (1982)". Hill's "Undergraduate Econometrics" instills understanding by slowly going through derivations and principles, while at the same time motivating econometric analysis by referring to economic situations where it can be used. ...

A must for the carousel lover
There are two books that any carousel collector or would-be collector must have. Dinger's "Art of the Carousel" and Manns' "Painted Ponies". These are simply the most complete of the carousel reference books. Bruce W. Zubee - Webmaster - [URL]
Conversations with Shelby Foote (Literary Conversations Series)

Interesting Answers from a Southern Writer
This book is comprised of a series of interviews with writer Shelby Foote. Since the interviews are conducted by a variety of people, they tend to repeat the most obvious questions, so the reader may want to skim over the repetitions. However, the interviews are fascinating. Foote was a brilliant person and his insights are worth reading. He spent 20 years writing his series on the Civil War, ...
