kirsten0929 's review for:

Swann's Way by Marcel Proust
5.0

Took my time, a little bit every day over a couple of months. I loved it. Beautiful and insightful. Really taps into the human experience. I scoffed when I once heard someone say you could read just a page a day and that would give you plenty to chew on, but now I totally get it. So often I had to reread (and reread!) a sentence or passage before moving on, but I was consistently rewarded for sticking with it and I would smile out loud. This edition also had a few reviews and a couple of interviews from when it first came out in 1913 which were really interesting. So excited to be underway now with Within a Budding Grove.
