Swann's Way Arcturus

In Swann's Way, the first of seven books that make up Proust's masterpiece Remembrance of Things Past, the narrator bites into a madeleine cake dipped in tea and memories of childhood come flooding back.

From the anxieties of youth to the swirl of jealousies and I intrigues surrounding family friend Charles Swann, Proust presents a river of elegant allusions, sensual impressions, teasing ironies, lovingly evoked descriptions, subtle and witty digressions, and penetrating insights into the characters.

Remarkable for its richness and its refusal to be rushed,

Swann's Way is a virtuoso performance by one of the true masters of the written word.
