All poetry is supposed to be instructive but in an unnoticeable manner; it is supposed to make us aware of what it would be valuable to instruct ourselves in; we must deduce the lesson on our own, just as with life. Goethe, Letter to Carl Friedrich Zelter (November 1825)

I think this is a pretty good description of what a poem is (from Eliot Weinberger, 19 Ways of Looking at Wang Wei): ‘It is a thing, forever itself, inseparable from its language.’

It's finally here! Of all my over 50 translations, this is the one I'm proudest of-- and most grateful for. I owe so much to Proust, I'm so glad I could repay my debt a little by translating him. ❤️
