I told you in the last video about how funny I found this book, and discussed the parallels I found with Tati's movie "Mon Oncle". Now I've finished it, and want to give some more thoughts, in another #booktube friendly vid, as well as showing you my Proust-related bookbinding project. "In Seach of Lost Time" (or "Remembrance of Things Past", depending on which translation you're reading) was originally published in 7 volumes, and I've rebound second hand paperbacks into volumes 3 and 4, with a view to upcycling my second-handers into the original 7 volume set, in a very personalised collection. I'm also rebinding my copy of Neal Stephenson's "Cryptonomicon", and customising it so it'll hold together for another reading, and look cool on my bookshelves.
