Holden, a writer and pianist, engages with Proust's � la recherche du temps perdu (In Search of Lost Time), its fictional composer Vinteuil, and his relationship with the narrator, to
understand how Holden had composed a piece when he was 16 that he no longer remembered composing or recording. He discusses scenes and music in the novel, how this connects to the role of
memory in music, and how he connected with his former self and rediscovered himself as a performer. Distributed in the US by ISBS. Annotation 穢2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
