SynopsisMark Treharne's acclaimed new translation of The Guermantes Way will introduce a new generation of American readers to the literary riches of Marcel Proust. The third volume in this superb new edition of In Search of Lost Time -- the first completely new translation of Proust's masterpiece since the 1920s -- it brings us a more comic and lucid prose than English readers have previously been able to enjoy. After the relative intimacy of the first two volumes of In Search of Lost Time, The Guermantes Way opens up a vast, dazzling landscape of fashionable Parisian life in the late nineteenth century, as the narrator enters the brilliant, shallow world of the literary and aristocratic salons. Both a salute to and a devastating satire of a time, place, and culture, The Guermantes Way defines the great tradition of novels that follow the initiation of a young man into the ways of the world.
