Changes made by Yorktaylors:

which had broken me -> which left me shattered

I am able to have guests -> would be able

the marvellous work of your brother -> your brother's dazzling book (the phrase is quoted in note 1, so needs to be the same)

we are less hurried for -> we are in less of a hurry for

Deep down, the polite habit of responding with “I have received your letter on” is very reassuring -> In the end, the businesslike formality of "I have received your letter of the" is comfortably reassuring (Larousse - honorée : dans la correpondance commerciale, lettre reçue)

let me kiss you tenderly -> embrace you (we know they had been lovers but I think kiss would be too explicit)

n.1 - dates from the end -> dates from about the end

volume -> book

As she proceeds from -> As it predates by

n.2 Journal of family and war -> leave untranslated

asked Proust to come and see him -> proposed visiting Proust

n.3 and subsequent notes completed
