Greenlanders was great! It took me like 6 months, though.
Sounds like a great project, but make sure you get the right edition. If you try to read the D.J. Enright “revision” of the Moncrieff translation, you will certainly regret it. It is unreadable. Get an older, non-revised edition of the same translation.
Just don’t poop out after Swann’s Way.
I’d also suggest a little “Music to Read Proust By” — Reynaldo Hahn.
