Indeed, Days of Reading, Sodom and Gomorrah, and others. He only reviewed a translation of Remembrance of Things Past in the LRB. That is probably what you remember reading, in the past. Philafrenzy (talk) 20:01, 10 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yes..indeed... all started with Proust's brother, thank you. Whispyhistory (talk) 20:07, 10 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Did eating a madeleine remind you? Philafrenzy (talk) 20:13, 10 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Of course...all the more reason not to delete. Whispyhistory (talk) 20:15, 10 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Notable translator of Stendahl and Proust into English. RomanSpa (talk) 06:51, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Obituary in The Times = notability. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:22, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There are many reliable sources present to pass GNG. Jaysonsands (talk) 11:46, 12 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Besides the Times obit , which we consider definitive evidence of notability., he's the author of three books from OUP and one from CambridgeUP. It's a totally unjustified AfD nomination, to the point that I wonder what the nominator had in mind. DGG ( talk ) 23:47, 13 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
