Publisher's Summary

Swann's Way is Volume 1 of Proust's seminal novel In Search of Lost Time, widely regarded as one of the 20th century's masterpieces. As with James Joyce's Ulysses, Proust employs stream of consciousness writing to vivid effect, making Swann's Way one of the forerunners of modern literature.

Brilliant reading

Swann’s Way must be a minefield to read aloud! Simon Callow is simply perfect for keeping things moving along while still relishing the beauty of the words. Audible is by far the best way to read Swann’s Way.
