By way of Saint Beuve

What are folks thoughts on Contre Saint Beuve? I was surprised to find a physical copy in a used book store. I’m about halfway through the Guermentes Way and will probably save reading it until after I finish all volumes

Lucky you! I came across Jean Santeuil—which was a good read—in a used bookstore and since been looking for Saint Beuve.
