Pushing Proust
Another shameless plug for Involuntary Memory, the Proust group blog. We've been posting about choosing a translation, madeleine recipes, previous Proust experiences, and other odds and ends. If you have ever considered reading Proust but were afraid to try, now's your chance! Discussion of Swann's Way starts on July 15th when we will have read the first section of "Combray" (about 50-60 pages). Thereafter we will attempt 50-60 pages each week. Anyone who wants to read the entirety of In Search of Lost Time is welcome to join the group, just send me an email. Or if you aren't a joiner, feel free to stop by and contribute to the conversation through comments. Come on, you know you want to!
