Quote from: Florestan on Today at 03:04:11 AMWhen I started Swann I was delighted but my initial enthusiasm dwindled every ten pages or so until it vanished completely and I never finished it. I don't even remember where I left off and I have no intention to start the whole damn stuff over again to find out.Your loss, cher Andrei.
Quote from: foxandpeng on Today at 02:56:27 AMAppreciated, gents. Good to know that others have trodden the path before me. Walked the long, circuitous journey. Explored the fulsome, undulating road. Travelled the extensive, meandering byways. Essayed the ongoing, upward climb.
