Precauzione inutile

by Marcel Proust

Overview

Considerato da Marcel Proust come un romanzo inedito e completo, Precauzione inutile è in realtà una versione abbreviata del quinto volume (La prigioniera) della celeberrima Recherche, che aveva lo scopo di promuovere l’intera opera. Tuttavia, si tratta di un romanzo compiuto e bellissimo, poiché l’intento di “condensazione” ha consentito all’autore di concentrare la storia sul serrato confronto fra i due amanti protagonisti.

About the Author

Marcel Proust (1871-1922) was born in Auteuil, France. In his twenties, following a year in the army, he became a conspicuous society figure, frequenting the most fashionable Paris salons of the day. After 1899, however, his chronic asthma, the death of his parents, and his growing disillusionment with humanity caused him to lead an increasingly retired life. From 1907 on, he rarely emerged from a cork-lined room in his apartment on boulevard Haussmann. There he insulated himself against the distractions of city life and the effects of trees and flowers—though he loved them, they brought on his attacks of asthma. He slept by day and worked by night, writing letters and devoting himself to the completion of In Search of Lost Time.
