Generally agreed to be the greatest novel of the twentieth century ¿ and possibly any other ¿ Proust¿s masterpiece is here presented in the latest revision to the classic Scott Moncrieff translation. On the surface a traditional <i>Bildungsroman</i> describing the narrator¿s journey of self-discovery, this huge and complex book is also a panoramic and richly comic portrait of France in the author¿s lifetime, and a profound meditation on the nature of art, love, time, memory and death. But for most readers it is the characters of the novel who loom the largest: Swann and Odette, Monsieur de Charlus, Morel, the Duchesse de Guermantes, Fran¿se, Saint-Loup and so many others ¿ Giants, as the author calls them, immersed in Time.
