A Reader's Guide to Proust's 'In Search of

Proust's A la recherche du temps perdu (In Search of Lost Time) is many things at once: a novel of education, a portrait of French society during the Third Republic, a masterful psychological analysis of love, a reflection on homosexuality, an essay in moral and aesthetic theory and, above all, one of the great literary achievements of the twentieth century.

David Ellison is Distinguished Professor in the Humanities at the University of Miami, Florida.
