Generally considered to be one of the great works of the 20th century, this novel is at once funny, moving and strange - something to return to again and again. Its sheer scale has mounted problems throughout its life, solved here by assigning each volume to a different translator.

With a fair claim to being the greatest European novel of the 20th century, IN SEARCH OF LOST TIME has never been translated consistently and fully before. The sheer scale of the book has caused problems only now solved by assigning each volume to a different translator. This endlessly funny, moving, strange novel is treated by many of its readers as something to return to again and again and this brilliantly designed boxed set at last offers everyone the best chance to enjoy it.

MARCEL PROUST (1871-1922) spent the early part of his life in Parisian high society before eventually retreating to his famous cork-lined room to devote the rest of his life to writing IN SEARCH OF LOST TIME. The first four volumes were published either in his lifetime or under his direct supervision and THE PRISONER, THE FUGITIVE and TIME FOUND AGAIN taken from almost final drafts.
