perdu

Proust's "A la recherche du temps perdu" is an enchantment, a very long river of neverending sentences.

Re: #6, the translation of French toast in French is pain perdu, literally meaning "lost bread", because it was a recipe to recover bread that was "lost" due to going stale.

Pain_perdu we're early in our partnership with CoFoundersLab and I take responsibility for the broader problem you've identified.

I am not sure if "trophies" work to enthuse the elitist book reader because after all, my leather bound Bibliothque de la Pliade version of " la recherche du temps perdu" makes me superior to any Dan Brown reader.

Sometimes we really need to read "à la recherche du temps perdu".\nTwitter is just heading to its natural destination, a place where people share links and headlines and quick comments of little to no value.\nAll the "revolution instrument" narrative is plain bullshit, too.
