Marcel Proust was born in Paris in 1871. He studied law at the Sorbonne but was drawn to writing, and published his first work in 1896. After the death of his parents in the early 1900s he gradually withdrew from society, eventually spending the majority of his time in his cork-lined bedroom. In Search of Lost Time is his major work, developed during the last decade of his life. He died in 1922.
“As close to being a definitive English version of the great novel as we are likely to get. This new edition will serve to introduce new generations of readers to what Somerset Maugham rightly described as the greatest novel of our century.” -- Allan Massie, Scotsman
“The best reading version yet.” -- The Times

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The definitive translation of one of the greatest French novels of the twentieth century In the opening volume of Proust's great novel, the narrator travels backwards in time in order to tell the story of a love affair that had taken place before his own birth.

All Proust's great themes - time and memory, love and loss, art and the artistic vocation - are here in kernel form. 'Surely the greatest novelist of the 20th century' Telegraph. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR001828911
