My Year With Proust - Day 314

Let us, finally, leave until later the men who have sealed a pact with Gomorrah.  We shall speak of them when M. de Charlus comes to know them.

Marcel Proust, Cities of the Plain, p. 646

I'm just throwing this in because it's a plot point that sets up later events and discussions, and it also is representative of one of those literary in-text cliffhangers that authors just don't do anymore.  I figured since Proust noted it then I should as well.
