One of the greatest, most entertaining reading experiences in any language, Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time Vol. 1- The Way by Swann's is published in a new translation from the French by Lydia Davis in Penguin Classics.
Marcel Proust (1871-1922) is generally viewed as the greatest French novelist and perhaps the greatest European novelist of the 20th century. He lived much of his later life as a reclusive semi-invalid in a sound-proofed flat in Paris, giving himself over entirely to writing IN SEARCH OF LOST TIME.
