Ever been curious about all the fuss surrounding Proust's gargantuan novel? This is a weekly livestream series designed to make it as accessible as possible. It provides a close analysis of Proust's "In Search of Lost Time" discussing what makes it such a special piece of literature, how ahead of its time it was in terms of its psychological insight, and how reading it can provide great "textual healing" for the stresses of everyday life. #Proust #bookclub #literaryanalysis

We aim to continue a quicker pace by completing the "Combray" section this week and we will start to discuss the next section "Swann in Love". Pages Covered: We go from the end of the sadistic lesbian love scene involving Mademoiselle Vinteuil (page 233 - Modern Library edition, pg 189 - Carter Edition) up to and then beyond (depending on how the discussion goes) the beginning of the new section "Swann in Love". #proust #rembranceofthingspast #insearchoflosttime #books #memory #literaryanalysis #persistenceofmemory
