Swanns Way, the first part of A la recherche de temps perdu, Marcel Prousts seven-part cycle, was published in 1913. In it, Proust introduces the themes that run through the entire work. The narrator recalls his childhood, aided by the famous madeleine; and describes M. Swanns passion for Odette. The work is incomparable. Edmund Wilson said "[Proust] has supplied for the first time in literature an equivalent in the full scale for the new theory of modern physics."This is the most up-to-date translation available. In 1989, the Bibliothèque de la Pléiade published the final volume of the definitive original text. For this translation, D.J. Enright revised the late Terence Kilmartins acclaimed reworking of C.K. Scott Moncrieffs translation to take into account the new French editions.Also available from the Modern Library: In Search of Lost Time Vol. I: Swann's Way, 0-679-60005-1Vol. II: Within a Budding Grove, 0-679-60006-XVol. III: The Guermantes Way, 0-679-60028-0Vol. IV: Sodom and Gomorrah, 0-679-60029-9Vol. V: The Captive & The Fugitive, 0-679-42477-6Vol. VI: Time Regained & A Guide to Proust, 0-679-42476-8 The Proust Six-Pack, 0-679-60295-X
Review:
"'Swann's Way' is not a book to read on the train, skipping over the pages with one eye on the landscape; it is a book of true originality and profundity to the point of strangeness, claiming the reader's attention and even seizing it forcibly....A novel of analysis, yes; but I know of few novels in which the analysis penetrates so deep. At times you want to cry out, 'Enough!' as to a surgeon who spares no detail in describing an operation. Yet you never say it. You keep on turning the pages feverishly in order to see further into the souls of these characters."
Elie-Joseph Bois, Le Temps, 11/13/1913
Review:"It is a picture of a society that is overcultured and neurotic, highly-strung and anemic, but interesting, human, amusing, civilized."
Burton Rascoe, New York Herald Tribune (1924-1966), 11/26/1922

The final volume of In Search of Lost Time chronicles the years of World War I, when, as M. de Charlus reflects on a moonlit walk, Paris threatens to become another Pompeii. Years later, after the war's end, Proust's narrator returns to Paris, where Mme. Verdurin has become the Princesse de Guermantes. He reflects on time, reality, jealousy, artistic creation, and the raw material for literature - his past life. This volume also includes the indispensable Guide to Proust, an index to all six volumes of the novel. The final volume of a new, definitive text of A la recherche du temps perdu was published by the Bibliotheque de la Pleiade in 1989. For this authoritative English-language edition, D. J. Enright has revised the late Terence Kilmartin's acclaimed reworking of C. K. Scott Moncrieff's translation to take into account the new French editions.
