October Nights

90 Classic titles celebrating 90 years of Penguin Books In October Nights , Gerard de Nerval takes us on a gentle meander through nighttime Paris – a dreamlike journey towards getting lost. Also included in this volume is Sylvie , his haunting novella of love and memory, the ‘masterpiece’ that inspired Proust to write In Search of Lost Time . Together, these works by the French poet, visionary and pioneering modernist are a testament to the power of jewelled thinking, and an inspiration for flaneurs and romantics everywhere.
