It feels like just yesterday we were discussing Proust and madeleines… Funnily enough, the first volume of In Search of Lost Time was actually my favorite text we read during this class. I loved how immersive the prose was. The entire text had a dreamlike feel, reminding me strongly of what it was like toContinue reading "My Final Post :(" read full post >>

We made it through the course! Congratulations to everyone! It’s crazy to think that throughout the span of this term I’ve read 11 books.
