A stunning hardback gift edition of the first volume of Proust's In Search of Lost Time.

When Charles Swann first lays eyes on Odette de Crecy, her beauty leaves him indifferent. Their paths continue to cross
in the drawing rooms and theatres of Parisian high society, and the seeds of desire in Swann begin to flourish. What
follows is a journey through self-delusion, jealousy and delirious fantasy, which will take Swann far from the sedate
comfort of his society life.
A standalone novella from Proust's monumental masterpiece, Swann in Love is a sublimely witty and poignant story of the
illusions of love and desire. Full of the rich social satire and penetrating insight that distinguish Proust's style, it is the
perfect introduction to one of the world's great novelists.
