One of my Proust feeds today was a short story that was a cut way above what one normally finds just surfing around. Here is the link: BTW, Proust is mentioned.

Ah California!

I have been reading The Poisonwood Bible the past few days and neglecting Marcel. At my current rate of progress, I'll finish the first of the two long volumes this year. Extrapolating, good work that, from there, it's going to take 2 years to make it through Lost Time. Don't know what I expected, that maybe I would zip right through like it was Robert Parker or Janet Evanovich? No. No. No. Proust is Proust. Dense as a black star. But rewarding. And even wise.

Onward,

Odette
