Here’s a nice meditation on reading In The Shadow of Young Girls In Bloom over at Chekhov’s Mistress. It makes me feel badly (again) about not finishing my own impressions of Vol. 2 so that I can post them here. I have a bunch of reading to do this weekend, but since what I want to post is mostly written (and it’s a three day weekend), I hope to get it up. I’m sure everyone is on tenterhooks.
The other week someone on Ask Metafilter asked a question about reading Proust. I wrote a fairly detailed answer that might serve as a kind of brief introduction to reading Proust. (It’s posted under my username on that forum.) The comments by jdroth down the page are also quite good, and he includes links to several of his own writings on Proust posted to his site Folded Space. (If his site used tags, I’d link directly to his essays. As it is, you should take the time to click over from his comment here.)
