Actually Proust was a novelist.

Actually, no, I didn't. I did however read Candide by Voltaire. Brillant writing, it was a very interesting read.

ugh... Proust. Incredibly scary and painful reads primarily because you'll get sucked in only to be tossed out of the book by a convoluted back-reference to 20 minutes of prior reading from within the same dang sentence. The guy is worse than Yoda. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if they'd gotten Yoda's speech patterns from reading Proust and just simplified the structure to make it easier to understand what he was saying.
