◎ Zhou Kexi's classic translation, recommended by Cheng Huoyi, Academician of France.
◎ Is Proust adaptable? The first half of his life was spent in and out of social fame and fortune, and the second half of his life was spent on his deathbed. Suffering from chronic insomnia for a long time, he used these long nights to memorialize the lost years. A "After the lost time", voluminous, dense, subtle syntax, millions of words, write the emergence and decline of love, write all the fame and fortune in the paper and gold, human warmth and coldness, is "World War I" before the outbreak of the nineteenth century, France's upper class and semi-upper class a long scroll of the masses of the people. Such a complex, rich and confusing text, it is difficult to enter and even more difficult to leave: how to adapt it into a comic?
◎ Stéphane Eyre has given a perfect score: he is the president of an advertising company, not a cartoonist, but out of love for the novel, he took on the Sisyphean task of "adapting Proust". He has been at work for ten years, pulling the dense text from the cocoon, one by one, to the image of the narrative, the water falls out of the stone, the veins appear, without losing its essence, just like "a giant symphony rewritten into a piano concerto". He knows the novel like the back of his hand, the text is very artisanal, not to take it, but to take it without adding or deleting a word, the painting heritage continues "The Adventures of Tintin" classic "clear line" style, the nineteenth-century French customs leaping off the page.
◎ Life is too short, Proust is too long: Proust's "difficult to read" and his fame. The attempt to visualize the text can be seen as an attempt to "democratize" Proust, showing the reader a shortcut to his text. Whether you know the novel by heart, are hesitant to read it, or have never had the chance to finish it: this comic will open the door to the world of Proust.
