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)

評分沒事乾的青春,實在是無聊,一無聊的時候,除瞭偶爾對白白嫩嫩的女生意淫一番,剩餘的大部分時間自己也就想著法子往書店跑。 高中的時候去學校對麵的教育書店,透過一堆教材擠成的小山丘,一個頭埋得很深的中學生,正津津有味地翻著村上春樹。雖然那段時間正好是村上體風靡的...

評分周六的天空灰暗陰沉,如灰色的絨布遮住瞭陽光和雲朵,適閤蝸居在傢中,我乾脆連床都不下捧起《擁抱逝水年華》從起床看到下午,天陰也感覺不到時間的流逝。經常看的咯咯笑起來,有時感覺找到瞭誌同道閤者,有時為那些逸事感到驚奇。 先說一下書名,我認為翻譯的很到位,雖然與英...
