French novelist Marcel, d. 1922 (6)

I believe the answer is:

proust

(Other definitions for proust that I've seen before include "Remembrance of Things Past author" , "Famous French novelist in stupor" , "French author" , "Marcel --, French novelist 1871-1922" , "Great French novelist found in stupor" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
