"Interdisciplinarity is often praised, less frequently criticized, in both cases irrelevantly, since it so rarely actually existsThe Proustian Mind, which doesn’t just set philosophy and literary studies side by side, but genuinely erases the boundary between them, is a very welcome exception, and one could do far worse than bunker down for a week with it…" - Ben Roth, MIND

"...all of the sections feature countless insights as to Proust's relevance in various dimensions of philosophy..." - Bryan Counter, Studies in the Novel
