PROUST INÉDITO. Estos ocho relatos excepcionales de un joven Marcel Proust han permanecido inéditos durante más de un siglo. Probablemente fueron víctimas de su propia censura, ya que la mayoría ponen en escena el deseo homosexual -un tema que ronda su obra maestra, En busca del tiempo perdido- con excesiva osadía. Compilados en la década de 1950 por Bernard de Fallois, el mítico editor de Marcel Pagnol y Joël Dicker, y autor del ensayo Proust antes de Proust , que dedicó gran parte de su vida al estudio de la obra del escritor, estos cuentos suscitan múltiples lecturas. Como dice Alan Pauls en su prólogo: «Es esa hipersensibilidad hacia lo maleable, y la voluntad de seguirle la pista, siempre, no importa adónde nos lleve, la razón por la que estos relatos [...] nos capturan: leemos a Proust porque es nuestro contemporáneo». ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Newly discovered stories from one of the great storytellers of the twentieth century Throughout Proust's life, some of this short stories remained unseen - the writer never spoke of them. Why did he choose not to publish them along with the others? One possible answer is that he was developing his themes in preparation for his masterpiece, In Search of Lost Time ; another is that the stories were too audacious - too near to life - for the censorious society of the time. In these stories, published here for the first time, we find an intimate picture of a young author full of darkness and melancholy, longing to reveal his true self to the world.
