Marcel Proust, one of the most popular French
authors and philosophers of his time, fascinated readers
with his books and their brilliantly observed descriptions
of people and nature, and, as a charismatic figure of the
people fine Paris salons, he also delighted people with
his rhetoric and wit. In what is probably his most important
work - "Remembrance of Things Past" - Proust's
new literary stylistic device, the inner monologue, was
combined masterfully with his analytical descriptions, which
in their candour, often allow readers to see themselves
in them.
As a great writer and thinker, Marcel Proust
always strove for the maximum depth of detail and precision
- an aspiration shared by the Writers Edition Marcel Proust.
The eight-sided barrel, with it's delicate engravings, recalls
the style prevailling in Proust's most creative period and,
like the mountings, consists of 925 sterling silver. The
barrel is also decorated by the engraved signature of the
writer. As a tribute to Marcel Proust's most popular work,
the rhodium-plated 18-carat gold nib bears a delicate engraving
of an hourglass.
With his keen
eye for the dark sides of human characters and his detailed
descriptions of their behaviour, Marcel Proust presented
his readers with a mirror to observe their own soul. He
became the most popular French author at the beginning of
the 20th century.
Delicate engraving in the style of his time graces the hexagonal
body of the Montblanc Limited Edition Marcel Proust. The
gold nib features the engraving of a tiny hourglass - a
subtle reference to his most popular work, "À
la recherche du temps perdu".
