Wait a few years before reading again.

It's just fun to read imo. That's basically all I got out of that book, was that Proust was good at expressing associative memory type feelings and describing sensations. The French is fucking gorgeous as well.

If he was going for something deeper I honestly don't care because he spent his life wallowing in his apartment and crying about aristocratic pussy

Actually I take that back, when he shows Swann falling into obsessive romantic behaviors, that was a very solid psychological portrait

So this is the w-wisdom of /lit/... whoa

>>8427775
it's well written and interesting and good

also, the psychological portrait of the narrator and the way in which physical sensations, especially beauty, are comprehended thru memory + aesthetic perception + an emotional, mental, human framework, ya know

also, aristocratic dick, not aristocratic pussy

>>8427775
this really stimulates my cerebral cortex

>reading a French translation and complaining about the amount of commas

Prose really isn't impressive either
