Au secours. Comment prononcer le nom du personnage centrale d’À la recherche dit ‘M ou Baron de Charlus’? Quelqu’un m’a corrigé aujourd’hui en disant que s’il s’agisse de ‘Charlu’ (comme on surnomme ) Mais, je répondis, que on dit ‘Cactus’ en français pas ‘Cactu’. Est-ce qu’il y a un protocol -ian. . Merci.

After the often humorous account of the chance encounter of Jupien & (I think one of ’s monsters), then the metaphor, the narration turns to the odious ’ soirée. I just want to note (subjectively) that this passage is akin to a /naturalemorte. The affair holds this part together. One might say ‘animates’ the treatment. But it is a characteristically well-worked still/life of the 3e .
