The Sensibility of Proust

The article focuses on the book "The Sweet Cheat Gone" by the author Marcel Proust and translated by C.K. Scott Moncrieff. In the tenth volume of a continuous novel one would hardly expect to find anything which is strictly new, and indeed one does not, but one seems almost to do so, for so rich is the originality of Proust that, as one reads the successive sections of his work, it is almost impossible to refrain from concentrating one's attention upon different aspects of his originality and from taking each individual volume as an illustration of the particular quality which one has in mind.
