Racing Against Time


We are scheduled to meet this week and I still have so much to read. I have been side-tracked and have been reading around Proust (and also writing conference papers, packing, etc.). It seems to me that one must read Proust slowly, methodically, carefully. Writing about Proust has allowed for me to read Proust in a new way, and perhaps a better way, but it is still difficult to just read Proust. My reading of Proust is always in relation, at this point, to my thinking about, through, against Proust. And so, today, the race against time begins to complete In Search of Lost Time.

Question: For those who have been writing about Proust, how has it changed your reading of Proust?
