[quote=Anonymous]Thinking of making the effort this year. I read War and Peace two years ago and I think it was a masterpiece and all it was cracked up to be (interestingly enjoyed the war parts more than the peace parts and actually *enjoyed* his second epilogue on free will and theories of history; when I was younger it probably would have been the "peace" parts that I preferred). I would give it 6 stars on Goodreads if I could, the only novel I would give such a ranking to. However there's another much bigger great big book, Proust's In Search of Lost Time, over 7 volumes. I'd like to tackle it. Some say it's the greatest ever novel. I'm curious to hear if anyone has read it or attempted to, how long it took, at what pace and any other advice. Is it all that it's cracked up to be?[/quote]
