Roland Barthes: The Proust Variations

Summary

This book concerns the ‘variations’ operated by Barthes on À la recherche du temps perdu over a period of three decades. It reads the Proustian oeuvre through the prism of Barthes, providing new readings of Proust’s novel and of Barthes’s own writings, and revealing an intricate – and inconsistent – web of references and circulations between the two.
