Swann's Way Remembrance Of Things Past, Vol- 1 Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Swann's Way', the first volume of Marcel Proust's monumental novel 'Remembrance of Things Past', is a rich and complex exploration of memory, time, and the inner workings of the human mind.

The book follows the narrator's reminiscences of his childhood in the French countryside, and his encounters with the enigmatic Charles Swann and his lover, Odette.

The novel's vivid, descriptive prose is a hallmark of Proust's writing, and the book is renowned for its deep psychological insights and its evocative portrayal of the sensory experiences of everyday life.

The themes of love, jealousy, and social status are woven throughout the narrative, and the book's intricate structure and nonlinear chronology invite readers to reflect on the nature of memory and the passing of time. 'Swann's Way' is a masterful work of literature and a foundational text of modernist writing.

Its influence can be seen in the works of countless authors who followed in Proust's footsteps, and it remains a must-read for anyone interested in the art of the novel.
