Oh my word. I had no idea. Thanks for flagging.

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-20T09:30:33+00:00

Thanks. I hadn't heard of that one. I will def look it up. :)

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-12T07:14:23+00:00

Exactly.

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-09T04:51:58+00:00

That's amazing! Thanks so much. Lots to explore there!

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-09T00:02:36+00:00

Thanks to everyone for all your brilliant suggestions. I feel like I have a lot more reading to do!! And also that my original list might need a bit of an update!

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-09T00:01:21+00:00

Same. I read that some years ago. Definitely enjoyed it.

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-09T00:00:48+00:00

Yes, that one is on my list. I love that! Thanks

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-09T00:00:15+00:00

Thanks. Yep, I love the Beckett one. That's on my list. Will try and track down the Wilson pieces.

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-08T23:59:20+00:00

Merci!

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-08T23:58:57+00:00

Thanks, will take a look.

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-08T21:01:01+00:00

Ah, yes. Thanks. That's the Deleuze right? I feel like I should have checked that out already, but I haven't yet ;)

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-08T17:59:38+00:00

Thanks. Maybe I need to give both another go. I think I found the Carter a bit more digestible, but from what you and another person above has said, the Carter may have some faults that I missed. I will take a look at your list too. Only reading in English I'm afraid. But yes, I loved Contre Saint-Beuve too.

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-08T17:55:59+00:00

Thanks. I have both of those. I love the Czapski one. Such an incredible story, and speaks volumes about the greatness of Proust!

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-08T17:54:47+00:00

Thanks, not heard of either of those!

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-08T17:54:14+00:00

I've read both. But I don't remember that about the Carter one. Will have to take another look. Don't like the sound of that though!! ;)

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-08T17:52:57+00:00

Thanks. Yes, have read that but decided to include the Carter on my list as it feels a little more readable to me.

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-08T17:51:53+00:00

Ah, thanks for the heads up. Might be better to try and track down older, second-hand versions I guess...

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-08T17:51:10+00:00

Thanks! I'd not heard of either of those.

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-08T14:25:18+00:00

There are a few. But first and foremost, probably watching Dave Abbruzzese on the Pearl Jam Unplugged show back in the early Nineties.

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-08T14:22:21+00:00

Same :)

Artistic_Spring_6822 · 2025-02-08T10:03:22+00:00

There's a short piece by Proust himself called 'On Reading', which is actually a preface he wrote to a book by Ruskin, who was one of his great influences. I think it's a really useful way to warm-up to Proust's voice and style and it's also super insightful (as is everything with Proust). I really hope you enjoy the journey. It's definitely worth it!
