In my #Proust readings to date, "lyrics for the Laverne and Shirley theme song" definitely takes 1st place in the "most unexpected thing I've had to Google" category. (Also, today I learned many alternate spellings for the term underlined here: schlemihl, schlemihl, shlemiel, etc.) #TheMoreYouKnow __ #LaverneAndShirley #Proust #losttimereporting #amreading #WithinABuddingGrove #books #vintagetelevision #schlemihl, #schlemihl #shlemiel #Yiddish https://www.instagram.com/p/BwvVDDepKY3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kq2fkts9bsxd

Amount of time I could wait after finishing Swann's Way before plowing into this, the second volume of Proust's In Search of Lost Time: exactly no minutes. (OMG, this confoundingly gorgeous writing.) #amreading #proust #losttimereporting https://www.instagram.com/p/BtNqJimH6q_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=wji3q00v3op

After years of famously false starts, I am finally on page 447 of Swann's Way, the first of six English-language volumes in Marcel Proust's "In Search of Lost Time" (Modern Library). The narrator is JUST threatening to get into "the second part of this story." (When I read this passage to Ma earlier, driving around Honolulu, we howled.) I LIKE THIS GUY. Wait, no. I LOVE him… like the half-gay, chronically ill literary granddaddy I never had, but obviously should have. #proust #amreading #losttimereporting https://www.instagram.com/p/BspzFVTAbFg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hfo56zwss9c8
