After the relative intimacy of the first two volumes of "In Search of Lost Time," "The Guermantes Way" opens up a vast, dazzling landscape of fashionable Parisian life in the late nineteenth century, as the narrator enters the brilliant, shallow world of the literary and aristocratic salons.

This elegantly packaged new translation will introduce a new generation of American readers to the literary richness of Marcel Proust.
