People think they don't need to bother with Proust. They know about
the madeleine, they know it's about remembering the past, they know
that not much happens and they know it's 3000 pages long. People
speak about getting to the end of it in the same way as they talk
of climbing Everest or running the marathon - but this is all
wrong. It's not hard to read and gathers you up in its momentum. It
is also horribly funny, heartbreaking, beautifully observed and
intelligent with a clarity that makes you feel intelligent as well.
First in the series. First of six volumes. Review by Nicci French,
whose books include 'The Memory Game' (Kirkus UK)
A new, definitive text of Marcel Proust's novel was published by the Biblioth-que de la Pl-iade in 1989. for the present six-volume edition, D. J. Enright has further revised Terence Kilmartin's acclaimed revision of C. K. Scott Moncrieff's translation, and has incorporated significant new material. As a result, Proust's masterpiece emerges with renewed freshness and authority in this unassailable translation. Each volume contains notes, addenda and synopses, and the six and final volume also includes a Guide to the complete work
