Title: It's a Dandy
Review: Having read Mr. White's biography numerous times, I find it to be an excellent portrayal of, arguably, the greatest novelist of the 20th century. The reason I have read it several times is because I keep going back to it after each volume of IN SEARCH OF LOST TIME. It is immensely readable and, as is the case with all of the Penguin series, short in length and long on insight. Edmund White, a gay man himself, has been accused of spending too much time and effort in discussing Proust's sexuality. I didn't find that to be the case. One can understand how the subject's (homo)sexuality became a platform for much of the writing and is reflected in several of the characterizations throughout the books. Who can say whether this was due to his sexual orientation or whatever literary acrobatics he would perform to suppress it. In any event, one will come away with a greater knowledge of Proust and his writings.
