This book is about reading Proust's novel via philosophical and
musicological approaches to "modern" listening. It articulates how
insights into the way we listen to and understand classical music
inform the creation of literary meaning. It asks: are we to take at
face value the ideas about art that the novel contains, or are
those part of the fiction? Is there a difference between what the
novel says and what it does, and how can music provide a key to
answering that question? According to this study, Proust asks us to
temporalize our interpretation by recognizing the distance between
initial and final experiences of the novel, and by being open to
the ways in which it challenges attempts at interpretive closure.
Proust's novel responds to the kind of attentive and eternally
changing perspectives that can be generated from music and our
attempts to make sense of it.
