The first book devoted to exploring Marcel Prousts influence on Irish literature and Irish themes within his work, The Irish Proust reveals a surprising textual dimension of Prousts novel and traces the enduring legacy of his work throughout twentieth-century Irish letters. Prousts work, which was briefly banned in Ireland, occupies an essential position within the Irish literary and cultural imaginary. From Samuel Beckett and Elizabeth Bowen to Brendan Behan and John McGahern, la recherche du temps perdu has been a touchstone for generations of Irish writers. Including bold new readings of Prousts presence within the writings of Beckett, Bowen, Behan, McGahern, Mary Devenport ONeill, and Gerald Murnane, this book draws on a wide range of archival sources and sheds new light on the cosmopolitan, modernist literary culture that emerged in post-independence Ireland despite a hostile official climate.
