Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The greatest novel ever written - made readable at last.Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time has long been called the finest novel in any language, and just as long been avoided by readers intimidated by its length and its century-old translation. This edition changes that.Presented here in an abridged and updated version of C. K. Scott Moncrieff's celebrated English translation, this edition preserves the beauty and depth of Proust's original prose while making it accessible to a modern reader for the first time.Follow Proust's narrator through a life of love, loss, memory, and art, spanning the years from 1871 to 1922 and the French society that shaped him, as he searches for meaning in his own past and ultimately finds it in the act of writing itself.Whether you've always meant to read Proust and never known where to start, or you're revisiting a classic in a version built for the way we read today, this is the edition to finally take on one of literature's great achievements.
