Review

"Marcel Proust is perhaps the greatest psychological novelist of his generation....His lucidities are hidden. He does nothing at all to help you. If you would read him the effort must be yours. He does not descend even one step to meet you. He sits in a certain splendid isolation and demands that you come to him if you will."

"In spite of his independent manner, Proust has managed to inspire his novel with the prudent technical virtues of suspense and unity. These signs of formal interest are what make 'Remembrance of Things Past' a novel, rather than mere rambling reminiscence....It is held together by a method analogous to that which unifies actual human experience, repetition of events, physical and mental. "

"After all is said one is forced to utter the same comment: Proust is the greatest novelist of our age."

Publisher's note

'The Guermantes Way' is the path that runs past the chateau belonging to the Duc and Duchesse de Guermantes. It also represents the path into 'the social kaleidoscope' traveled by Proust's narrator, which culminates in his introduction to the Paris salon of the Guermantes. The rich cast of characters in this third volume of In Search of Lost Time includes Robert de Saint-Loup, who is obsessed with the prostitute Rachel, and Baron de Charlus, a public womanizer and secret homosexual.
