Additional Information

Marcel Proust was a French Novelist who wrote the novel Remembrance of Things Past and is considered to be one of the all-time greatest authors. The novel, which is known for its great length,  was published as seven volumes between 1913 and 1927. This button probably comes from a popular T-shirt slogan in the 1970s, “Proust Is a Yenta.” “Yenta” is Yiddish for female gossip
