In Search Of Lost Time Volume 2

In this second volume of In Search of Lost Time, the narrator turns from the childhood reminiscences of Swann-s Way to memories of his adolescence. Having gradually become indifferent to Swann-s daughter Gilberte, the narrator visits the seaside resort of Balbec with his grandmother and meets a new object of attention-Albertine, -a girl with brilliant, laughing eyes and plump, matt cheeks.-

For this authoritative English-language edition, D. J. Enright has revised the late Terence Kilmartin-s acclaimed reworking of C. K. Scott Moncrieff-s translation to take into account the new definitive French editions of - la recherch-u temps perdu (the final volume of these new editions was published by the Biblioth-e de la Pl-de in 1989).
