I have esatto mention here that I am per very reserved person, sopra the effect that while I feel as rapidly and as strongly as Proust so often describes, I do not act on it.

However, all this together wasn’t enough, and ultimately the frustrating misconceptions in regards puro homosexuality, the aggravating viciousness of many of the shallower characters, and finally the repulsive selfishness of the narrator himself all sounded the death knell for that fifth primo attore.
Perhaps I have grown too used preciso Proust’s prose, or maybe his own tools of immense perception backfired on him when he concerned himself with this particular subject that impacted his life per niente matter how much he denied it puro himself. . more
