Proust and Other Matters

Dear Visitor,

In the high school of my day, we were warned never to use the words “I” or “me” in our compositions.  Ignoring that curious rule, I publish here in a personal key some reflections, poetry and essays about matters that matter to me – friends, philosophers, Proust and others.  At the time that I needed to invent an email address, I happened to be immersed in Proust. Really more consumed than immersed. Proust mattered more to me than any other writer, more than any other activity.  Thus the name “proustmatters” – in the sense of what matters to me – arose and stuck. It became my cybername. Since then, that Proust obsession has relaxed as more friends, heroes and teachers have come into my life.

Here is a personal magazine with some matters that matter to me; I invite you to read as I would invite you for coffee into my living room. I hope your visit is enjoyable. Please come again soon.
