Synopsis "Swann's Way Remembrance Of Things Past, Vol- 1 (in English)"

Swann's Way', the first volume of Marcel Proust's monumental novel 'Remembrance of Things Past', is a rich and complex exploration of memory, time, and the inner workings of the human mind. The book follows the narrator's reminiscences of his childhood in the French countryside, and his encounters with the enigmatic Charles Swann and his lover, Odette. The novel's vivid, descriptive prose is a hallmark of Proust's writing, and the book is renowned for its deep psychological insights and its evocative portrayal of the sensory experiences of everyday life. The themes of love, jealousy, and social status are woven throughout the narrative, and the book's intricate structure and nonlinear chronology invite readers to reflect on the nature of memory and the passing of time. 'Swann's Way' is a masterful work of literature and a foundational text of modernist writing. Its influence can be seen in the works of countless authors who followed in Proust's footsteps, and it remains a must-read for anyone interested in the art of the novel.

(1871-1922) Novelista, ensayista y crítico francés. Es uno de los escritores cruciales de la literatura moderna. Nació en París en el seno de una familia adinerada y abandonó pronto sus estudios de Derecho para relacionarse con la sociedad elegante de París y dedicarse a escribir. Proust, aquejado de asma desde la infancia y convertido en un enfermo crónico, pasó el resto de su vida recluido, sin salir prácticamente nunca de la habitación revestida de corcho donde escribió su obra maestra: En busca del tiempo perdido, la que está reconocida sin discusión como una de las más importantes de la literatura moderna, influenciando tanto en el campo de la literatura como en el de la filosofía y la teoría del arte. Falleció de neumonía en París un 18 de noviembre de 1922.
