Proust is as ever a delight for reader, scholar and collector alike. Scott Moncrieff was Prousts first translator, and produced a personal interpretation, deemed by many to rival the original. Joseph Conrad wrote to him that You have a supreme faculty akin to genius. A N Wilson wrote; Scott Moncrieffs twelve skyblue volumes.belong to that special category of translations which are themselves literary masterpieces. Moncrieff died before translating the final volume, leaving that task to Stephen Hudson, pseudonym of Sydney Schiff. These 12 volumes may incur additional postage, particularly overseas.
