This is exactly why I keep putting off reading Proust! Every single time a writer I like references him they essentially say this… and yet… they all do read him, and love him at least as much as they hate him, so I still keep meaning to get to his work… eventually… #dilemma #somepartsofthecanonscareme
TheBookHippie I sit staring at my copies, maybe 2025 & 2026 😂 13mo
IndoorDame @TheBookHippie good plan! 😂 13mo
xicanti The thing about Proust is, he‘s wordy in a fun way more often than a frustrating way. There were times when I got sick of his narrator‘s crap, but for the most part I had an amazing romp through his long, long novel. 13mo

Graywacke Proust creates something with those winding sentences. Definitely worth reading. Just carry your patience along with you 13mo
