"Proust's 'A la recherche du temps perdu' (In search of lost time) is many things
at once: a novel of education, a portrait of French society during the Third Republic,
a masterful psychological analysis of love, a reflection on homosexuality, an essay
in moral and aesthetic theory, and, above all, one of the great literary achievements
of the twentieth century. This Reader's Guide analyses each volume of the 'Recherche'
in order and in detail. Without jargon or technical language, David Ellison leads
the reader through the work, clarifying but not oversimplifying the intricate beauty
of Proust's imaginary universe. Focused both on large themes and on narrative and
stylistic particularities, Ellison's readings expand our understanding and appreciation
of the work and provide tools for the further study of Proust. All French quotations
are translated, making this an ideal guide for students of comparative literature
as well as of French"--Provided by publisher
