The Cambridge Companion to Proust
I came quite close to giving this book a five star rating as there are some terrific essays included, most notably by Holly Markland Harder, Edward J. Hughes, David Ellison and Malcolm Bowie.
However, there are a few, as can be expected in this type of book, that suffer from an overload of academia. The novel is easier to read and understand than some of these essays.
The book has the perfect title though as it is an exceptional companion to the understanding and enjoyment of A la recherche du temps perdu.
