The Prisoner
'In Search of Lost Time' is Proust's masterpiece and was described by Somerset Maugham as the greatest novel of the 20th century. This translation brings to the fore a more sharply engaged, comic and lucid Proust. In Search of Lost Time is one of the greatest, most entertaining reading experiences in any language. As the great story unfolds from its magical opening scenes to its devastating end, it is this text that makes Proust accessible to a new generation.
