A la question : Quel serait votre plus grand malheur ? , Marcel Proust avait rpondu : Etre spar de maman. ... Jeanne Weil, ne en 1849 Paris, appartient cette bourgeoisie juive claire dont les anctres sont venus d'Alsace et d'Allemagne au XVIIIme sicle. Son mariage avec Adrien Proust, fils d'picier catholique beauceron, sans fortune mais promis une brillante carrire mdicale, tmoigne avant tout de son dsir d'intgration : si ellemme ne se convertit pas, ses enfants deviendront les descendants catholiques d'une famille terrienne d'Illiers. Du ct Proust, on voit bien le parti avantageux que reprsente la jeune femme, duque et fortune... mais on approuve du bout des lvres. Marcel sera donc baptis, comme prs de deux ans plus tard, son frre Robert. Autant le premier est, ds sa naissance, fragile et nerveux, autant le cadet est robuste et indpendant. Entre ses trois hommes, Jeanne Proust s'efforcera toute sa vie l'galit. Pourtant, elle a beau faire, il y a en elle un fond d'inquitude permanent pour l'an, que Marcel, luimme toujours inquiet quant l'amour qu'elle lui porte, ne cessera d'attiser, comme si ses crises d'asthmes n'y suffisaient pas... Jusqu' la mort de Jeanne en 1905 (il alors a 34 ans !), il est ainsi anxieusement couv, comme un ternel petit garon, par celle qu'en lgitime retour, il appellera toute sa vie maman : J'avais toujours quatre ans pour elle , criratil. Tous deux se quitteront peu, vivant sous le mme toit, partant ensemble en cure quand la sant de l'un ou l'autre l'exige, et entretenant une correspondance suivie des plus dtailles les rares fois o ils s'loignent... Madame Proust raconte aussi le rle essentiel de Jeanne dans la formation de l'crivain : celle qui, des heures durant, lui faisait la lecture lorsqu'il tait enfant le pre ne lit pas , est devenue sa premire lectrice, mais aussi sa collaboratrice. A sa demande, elle traduit mot mot des centaines de pages de Ruskin qu'il remet ensuite en forme, elle l'encourage sans cesse au travail, et lutte pour faire acqurir au jeune homme souffrant, dissip et mondain, la discipline ncessaire tout grand crateur...
