"Vanity Fair's" Proust Questionnaire: 101 Luminaries Ponder Love, Death, Happiness, and the Meaning of Life

Author(s): Graydon Carter

New Hardbacks

Since 1993, Vanity Fair magazine has featured the celebrated Proust Questionnaire, in which a different noteworthy person each month answers the same series of probing personal questions. The questionnaire originated as a 19th-century parlour game popularised among friends of French novelist Marcel Proust (1871-1922), who believed that an individual's answers reveal his or her true nature. Illustrated by Risko, Vanity Fair's Proust Questionnaire brings together the responses of 100 of the most vibrant personalities of our time, from Bette Midler and Lauren Bacall to Salman Rushdie , from Martin Scorsese and Shirley MacLaine to Aretha Franklin and Eric Clapton. Hilarious, candid, and endlessly fascinating, this is a must-have collection for all connoisseurs of popular culture.
