Marcel Proust: Mapping Memory at Père Lachaise

A gentle walk to Proust’s tomb, tracing quiet rituals and cartographic cues in the garden cemetery.

Marcel Proust’s tomb

Proust’s tomb gathers quiet gestures: reading, standing, noting dates. Wayfinding becomes memory cartography — routes that layer time in space.


Reading & Route

  • Inscription pause: Names catalyze recollection.
  • Turning points: Paths mark chapters of the walk.
  • Return: Exiting becomes afterthought.

[^proust]: Visitors commonly report a slower pace in literary nodes, with prolonged inscription reading.
