A number two comment on #MarginalRevolution: "So many writings about Proust disproportionately discuss the first book, the first page, the first sentence. It would be interesting to see a chart of where people who take up the book stop reading."

A la recherche du temps perdu, tome 6 : Albertine disparue - BookWyrm

Albertine disparue (Albertine Gone) is the title of the sixth volume of Marcel Proust's seven part novel, À la recherche du temps perdu. It is also known as La Fugitive (in French) and The Sweet Cheat Gone (in English).

Maybe the time is nigh to become Proustian & finally read #InSearchOfLostTime

#AmReading Proust. Just finished book 3, now up for number 4.

At times it was even slower than slow and it's a looong read, but all in all I loved it!

Social Reading and Reviewing

#Proust […] is a sort of improbable Belle Époque Tolkien, the maker of a world with passports and maps and secret codes, to which many seek entry. […] The most musical pages of writing that exist in any language are those in the section of ‘Swann’s Way’ called ‘Place-Names: The Name’, devoted to the romance of the adolescent Marcel and Gilberte, the daughter of Swann and Odette.”
