Venna encounters a swamp monster that inconveniently eats her clothes; she then turns to a sprightly milkbug herder named Suhl for some much-needed help.

Marcel Proust (1871-1922) was born in Paris during a time of great social and political upheaval, a ferment that is dealt with extensively in his monumental work In Search of Lost Time.
