Du côté de chez Swann, the first volume of THE NOVEL, was published ninety-nine years ago today, which explains why next year is the year of reading Proust.
Some people argue, by the way, that Proust isn't really a modernist but a late romantic. I don't think you can really make that argument stick but you can read him as if he were and get a coherent reading out of the book. I do.
