Happy Birthday, Marcel!
Joyeux anniversaire!
Marcel Proust was born this day in 1871. His great novel, À la recherche du temps perdu, which is called both "Remembrance of Things Past" and the more literal "In Search of Lost Time" in English (unlike other novels, which get stuck with one name, no matter how oddly translated), was published in 8 volumes, 3 of which appeared after his death.
