Albertine has a special Thanksgiving visitor this year.

Artist Edgar Duvivier is raising funds for the installation of a life-size sculpture of Marcel Proust in the French city of Cabourg. Known for being Proust’s favorite vacation spot, Cabourg was the inspiration for Balbec, the seaside resort in Proust’s In Search of Lost Time.

To contribute to the effort, purchase a limited series statuette of Marcel Proust, signed and numbered by the artist. Read more about this project here.
