This is as far as I’ve read in the old, not very welcome translation. But I still fell into Proust’s spell I must get t new translation and continue my travels in his world. Thanks for this Tosh.

I read the whole thing in college... and now I can say, without shame, that I was just too young and distracted to appreciate it. But, like many, I KNOW that I will return to it. Thank you for this, Tosh!

When I read about Proust, the number one commentary is that one has to be older to appreciate Proust. For me, this is true, but I don't know if that is true for everyone. I have read "Swann's Way" at least thrice, and it was hard for me to get through it. But now that I'm in my 60s, it's like, "I got it now." But is this true?

I'm excited to give it a go in my 60s and 90s.
