< p> 2 Go to Swann’s House

Douban score: 9.2

Reason for recommendation:

◎The correct way to open Proust is comics: 1 The opportunity came to read "In Search of Lost Time" in one breath.

◎Zhou Kexi’s classic translation, recommended by French academician Cheng Baoyi.

◎Can Proust be adapted? In the first half of his life, he went to social circles and fame and fortune, and in the second half of his life, he stayed on the bedside. Suffering from chronic insomnia for a long time, he spent these long nights reminiscing about the past. "In Search of the Lost Time" is a voluminous volume with dense writing, subtle syntax, and millions of words. It describes the birth and decline of love, the wealth and wealth in Vanity Fair, and the warmth and warmth of human relationships. It is the outbreak of the "World War I" A long scroll depicting all the people from the upper and semi-upper class society in France in the 19th century. Such a complex, rich, and confusing text is difficult to get into and even harder to get out: How to adapt it into a comic?

◎Stefan Erai received full marks: he is currently the president of an advertising company and is not a cartoonist with a professional background. However, out of his love for this novel, he took over the "adaptation of Prussia" "Special" is a Sisyphean task. He worked at his desk for ten years, unraveling the dense text and implementing it into an image narrative one by one. The details are revealed and the context is revealed without losing its essence. It is like "rewriting a giant symphony into a piano concerto."

◎Seeing prosperity in minimalism: Eai’s adaptation is ambitious but modest and full of respect. He knows this novel well, and he is very ingenious in selecting the text. If he does not take it, it will be enough, and if he takes it, not a word will be added or deleted. His painting style inherits and continues the classic "clean line school" style of "The Adventures of Tintin", which was inspired by France in the 19th century. The local customs and customs are vividly reflected on the paper.

◎Life is too short, Proust is too long: Proust’s “difficulty to read” is as famous as his fame. The attempt to visualize the text can be seen as an attempt to "democratize" Proust, pointing out a shortcut for readers to enter Proust's text. Whether you are a person who knows the novel by heart, a person who hesitates outside the door, or a person who has never had the chance to finish reading it: this comic will open a door to the world of Proust for you.
