Proust Said That is the unofficial organ of the equally unofficial Marcel Proust Support Group of San Francisco. It is published twice annually, if perhaps irregularly. This publication is devoted to the subjects, attitudes and enthusiasms Proust espoused, as well as whatever else we decide to include. Subscriptions are $6 for one year/two issues, which includes postage. Send CASH, letters, faxes, editorial submissions and other amusing things to P, Proust Said That, 1907 Golden Gate Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94115, USA, (415)923-9722, fax (415)771-9251; our Email address is vision@well.com.

This publication is written, edited and published by P (which does not, as some might believe, stand for Proust.) Thanks once again to Dean Gustafson for the delightful portrait of Marcel Purroust on the cover, our signature madeleines, and the postcards and photos from Paris. Thanks also to Mercedes Abraham for the winsome nesselrode illustrations, Ted Olsson and Natasha Pruitt, for the Proust news from Athens, Peter Field for the photographs from the Proust Wake, Jeffrey Gray and Cynsa Bonorris for bringing Proust Said That into the electronic age, Stuart Mangrum, Lance Alexander and Jeffrey Gray for their invaluable technical support, and all the kind persons who encouraged me to carry on with issue number two.
