Proust translation produces coma (6)
I believe the answer is:
stupor
'coma' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'proust translation' is the wordplay.
'translation' indicates anagramming the letters.
'proust' anagrammed gives 'STUPOR'.
'produces' is the link.
(Other definitions for stupor that I've seen before include "State of bewilderment" , "Coma, lethargy" , "Insensible state" , "Suspension of sensibility" , "Coma - lassitude" .)
