Why does /lit/ so rarely speak about Proust? Is it just because noone bothers to read In Search of Lost Time?
He's so widely acclaimed by the literary community, yet I don't see him mentioned on this site as much as, say, Dostoyevski.

Knausgard's much more accessible than Proust, and more hip.

Is that a deliberate mise en scene of the old joke about killing six billion jews and a clown?

Proust is one of the greatest authors ever. Read him. Read all of In Search of Lost Time, don't just read the first part and say that's enough.
