About the book

Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time is a vast exploration of memory, society, love, art and the passage of time. Through the experiences of its narrator and a large cast of characters drawn from French society, the sequence examines how memory can unexpectedly recover experiences believed to be lost. Proust's intricate prose and psychological insight make the work one of the great achievements of twentieth-century literature.
