In this week's episode photographer Perry Ogden takes on our 'Proust Photo Quiz'. The Proust Questionnaire is a set of questions answered by the French writer Marcel Proust. Proust answered the questionnaire in a confession album, a form of parlour game popular at the end of the 1890s. The album, titled An Album to Record Thoughts, Feelings, etc. was found in 1924 and published in the French literary journal Les Cahiers du Mois. Our 'Proust Photo Quiz' is an adaption of the original text. Perry Ogden Perry Ogden was born in Shropshire, England, grew up in London and now lives in Dublin, Ireland.
