marc129 's review for:
À la recherche du temps perdu
by Marcel Proust
Read this in Dutch, and partly in French. The first parts contain wonderful scenes (the waking up, the madeleine-experience etc). The sentences are very slow, spiralling, but you get used to that. It all seems a bit trivial, non-spectacular, but after a while Proust keeps on spooking in your head.
The later parts are rather difficult, but the seventh and final book is definitely the best one. You can find the key to all the other books in there. Just one hint: it's all about memory and how that relates to reality!
