I was committed to reading the all 7 volumes of "Remembrance of ThingsPast" once I started, so the difficulty didn't stop me. But what apleasant surprise when I got this different translation of volumes 5 & 6!I'd read the Pleiade editions of the first 4 volumes by C. K. Montcrieff,and although they were good, it was like walking through loose sand.But now that I'm reading this different translation, it's a breeze--it almost feels like I'm reading a trashy Joyce Carol Oates novel, it'ssuch a page-turner!So if you've gotten this far, don't stop now: get this translation andlaissez les bon temps rouler!
