Marcel Proust, born on July 10, 1871, in Paris, was a French novelist best known for his seven-volume masterpiece, In Search of Lost Time. Raised in an affluent family, he struggled with severe asthma, which shaped his introspective nature and literary ambitions. His delicate health kept him close to home, fostering the reflective depth seen in his work.Proust attended the Lycée Condorcet, where he excelled in literature despite frequent illness. He was introduced to Parisian salons, which inspired his detailed depictions of high society. Though he briefly studied law, his passion for writing and the arts guided his career.Proust's magnum opus, published between 1913 and 1927, explores themes of memory, time, and societal transformation. His innovative narrative style, especially his use of "involuntary memory," revolutionized modern literature. Proust worked on his masterpiece until his death on November 18, 1922, leaving an enduring literary legacy.
