The Guermantes Way

A new translation of Marcel Proust’s classic work in ‘In Search Of Lost Time’.

‘The Guermantes Way’ opens us 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 on a time, place and culture, ‘The Guermantes Way’ is in the great tradition of novels that follow the initiation of a young man into the ways of the world.
