Alain de Botton was born in Zurich, Switzerland in 1969 and now lives in London.
He is a writer of essayistic books, which refer both to his own experiences and ideas- and those of artists, philosophers and thinkers. It's a style of writing that has been termed a 'philosophy of everyday life.'
(extracted from Alaindebotton.com)
The starting point of How Proust can change your Life is that a great novel can be nothing less than life-transforming. This is an unusual claim: our education system, while stressing that novels are highly worthwhile, rarely investigates why this is so. How Proust can change your Life takes Marcel Proust’s In Search of Lost Time as the basis for a sustained investigation into the power and significance of literature. Proust’s novel, almost a byword for obscurity and irrelevance, emerges as an invaluable source of insight into the workings of love, society, art and the meaning of existence.
The book reveals Proust’s thoughts on how to revive a relationship, choose a good doctor, enjoy a holiday, make friends and respond to insult. A vivid portrait of the eccentric yet deeply sympathetic author is built up out of extracts from his letters, essays and fiction and is combined with a commentary on the power of literature to change our lives. A self-help book like few others.(extracted from Alaindebotton.com)

How Proust can -------對於Alain de Botton關於Proust的獨到見解的指指點點 翻譯者餘斌在前言裏說:這是一本風趣的書,然而裏麵不乏一本正經的教誨之言。這是一本教訓之書,然而全書貫穿著揶揄調侃的語調。最後隻好說這本書於各種成分兼而有之......硬要歸類,也許就得拖...
評分世界上據說有那麼幾本書可以砸死人,但是好像沒有誰被砸死過。 世界上能砸死人的小說也有那麼幾本,其中一本叫做《追憶逝水年華》,我第一次看的時候,看不下去,就好像一個腰闊膀大的女人突然站在你麵前,脫衣解帶。 那一刻,我猜想普魯斯特一定是一個憂傷到45度角都不夠憂...

評分如果簡單地敘述, 這個句子是這樣的: 今天下午我買瞭一本<擁抱逝水年華>. 但這個原名How Proust can change your life的小冊子使我更傾嚮於用另一種錶達方式: 在被我可愛的第二號小叔, 準確地說是被他和在未來存在那麼一點可能性成為我的嬸嬸的女孩子--她甚至比我還年少兩歲...
評分一口氣讀完瞭阿蘭.德波頓的《擁抱逝水年華》,喜歡德波頓行雲流水、信手拈來的感覺。 下麵是這本書的簡單的一些書摘: * 一旦明白終有一死,放棄瞭永生之念,我們會忽然發現,在看似冗長無聊的生活錶層之下,藏著那麼多人們未加嘗試的可能性。 * "彆太快"似乎是普魯...

評分章節水準參差不齊,有的蠻有共鳴,有的部分比較牽強。三星半。
