In the overture to Swann's Way, the themes of the whole of In Search of Lost Time are introduced, and the narrator's childhood in Paris and Combray is recalled, most memorably in the evocation of the famous maternal good-night kiss. The recollection of the narrator's love for Swann's daughter Gilberte leads to an account of Swann's passion for Odette and the rise of the nouveaux riches Verdurins.
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

In Search of Lost Time: Swann's Way v. 1 (Hardback) (ISBN: 9780679600053) Proust, Marcel;Scott-Moncrieff, C. K.;Kilmartin, Terence;Moncrieff, S.K. Scott Quantity Available: 1
Book Description: Random House USA Inc, United States, 1997. Hardback. Book Condition: New. New edition. 197 x 133 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. 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.
