'If the idea of death had cast a shadow over love, the memory of love had for long helped me not to fear death. I realised that death is nothing new'
At once intimate and epic, Proust's transformative novel follows one man's search for meaning in his life, from childhood through love affairs, jealousy, desire and loss to the discovery of his vocation - and salvation - in art. Scott Moncrieff's masterly early-twentieth-century translation of Remembrance of Things Past captures both Proust's grandeur and lyricism, and is now regarded as an immortal classic in its own right.
This volume contains The Captive, The Sweet Cheat Gone and Time Regained, showing the end of a relationship, a world destroyed by war and the possibility of redemption.
