Alain de Botton combines two unlikely genres--literary biography and self-help manual--in the hilarious and unexpectedly practical How Proust Can Change Your Life. Who would have thought that Marcel Proust, one of the most important writers of our century, could provide us with such a rich source of insight into how best to live life? Proust understood that the essence and value of life was the sum of its everyday parts. As relevant today as they were at the turn of the century, Proust's life and work are transformed here into a no-nonsense guide to, among other things, enjoying your vacation, reviving a relationship, achieving original and unclich d articulation, being a good host, recognizing love, and understanding why you should never sleep with someone on a first date. It took de Botton to find the inspirational in Proust's essays, letters and fiction and, perhaps even more surprising, to draw out a vivid and clarifying portrait of the master from between the lines of his work. Here is Proust as we have never seen or read him before: witty, intelligent, pragmatic. He might well change your life.Binding Type: Paperback

Excellent, Helpful
Format: Paperback
This is a well written, clear, and very helpful guide to private lending. The first and only book of its kind. I am a full-time private lender and right now am using the book as a training manual for a new employee….and also as a refresher and check for myself and my own private lending business. Recommended.

So beautifully done
Format: Kindle
5/5 ⭐️
This was such a beautiful story I loved the relationships with both Nayra and the Djinn and her friend Rami how both were trying to help each other but both Nayra and the Djinn were running away from the same problem.
The art style was gorgeous and the color palette was gorgeous this story was beautiful this story was incredible my only complaint was I wish it was longer. Either way this was a beautiful story.

sweet story + whimsical art
Format: Kindle
this was a really cute coming of age comic about identity and friendship while playing with folklore.
i loved how whimsical the art got esp with the presence of the djinn and their storytelling. the plot was pretty simple, but overall it was a very feel-good read.
