Marcel Proust, one of the most popular French authors and philosophers of his time, fascinated readers with his books and their brilliantly observed descriptions of people and nature, and, as a charismatic figure of the fine Paris salons, he also delighted people with his rhetoric and wit.
In what is probably his most important work –
À la recherche du temps perdu
(
Remembrance of things past
) – Proust’s new literary stylistic device, the inner monologue, was combined masterfully with his analytical descriptions, which, in their candour, often allow readers to see themselves in them.
As a great writer and thinker, Marcel Proust always strove for the maximum depth of detail and precision – an aspiration shared with the Writers Limited Edition Marcel Proust ballpoint pen.
Every detail of this scarce limited edition displays truly superlative craftsmanship.
The trim is made of 925 sterling silver, as is the eight-sidedbarrel, which features fine engravings in the style typical of Proust’s main creative period (filigree is delicate and intricate ornamentation popular at the turn of the century).
The hexagonal barrel also bears the engraved signature of the writer from which it takes its name.
The top of the cap is surmounted by the ivory-coloured Montblanc star.
Hexagonal 925 sterling silver barrels, black resin front-and-endpieces.
White outer sleeve, Illustrated Outer box (slightly worn), book display box, International Service Certificate (blank).
Fully working and ready to write with.
Sealed & sought after MB WE Proust BP dedicated to a remarkable writer.
