Review

Oh if I could write like that! -- Virginia Woolf

One of the cornerstones of the Western literary canon - The Times

Proust sinks deepest in readers because the book is so exhaustively analytical, so ceaselessly truthful... The experience of reading [the book] becomes, in itself, an unforgettable thing - Independent

The way he replicates the workings of the mind changed the art of novel-writing forever...his style is extraordinary, enveloping, captivating - Guardian

There are many who swear the experience has permanently enriched their lives - Daily Mail

From the Inside Flap

Each volume contains notes, addenda and synopses, and the sixth and final volume also includes a guide to the complete work.

From the Back Cover

“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

About the Author

Marcel Proust was born in Auteuil in 1871. In his twenties he became a conspicuous society figure, frequenting the most fashionable Paris salons of the day. After 1899, however, his suffering from chronic asthma, the death of his parents and his growing disillusionment with humanity caused him to lead an increasingly retired life. He slept by day and worked by night, writing letters and devoting himself to the completion of A la recherche du temps perdu. He died in 1922 before publication of the last three volumes of his great work.
