oh catherine darling! if you knew how much i agree with you. i will never ever ever be able to finish a la recherche. it's a lost cause with me. ditto ulysses, ditto any paul auster book. i am so sorry to be such a lowbrow but give me maugham, give me robertson davies, give me nancy mitford. now i know i'll never try again. wallyK, life is simply too short, for god's sake

I once tried reading that darn Proust thing and I got so sick of that madeleine that I just couldn't go on. I know Proust was supposed to be a great writer, but I just couldn't handle it - enough of the damn cookie! Get on with it, willya?
