Well. I just realized that I know next to nothing about Marcel Proust’s life, so I just did an online search. What a fascinating man — but you already knew that.

Thank you for continuing to develop my English Lit landscape.

  Ha, yes indeed! I love Proust, which I guess is kind of obvious. 🙂
  
  I just share things I love, but I am always chuffed when people learn or discover new writers or books in the process.

I must admit I have read about him but have not been able to finish “Swann’s Way”. So many books….and all that.

  I know you do not share my passion for dead writers. Marcel is my birthday mate, so I have an extra amount of fondness for him.
