In Search of Lost Time (Proust Complete - 6 Volume Box Set) (Modern Library): Proust 6-pack (Modern Library Classics)

Everyone should read this book as soon as they are able to do so. The wisdom and insight it contains give valuable tools for making it in society. I'm over 60 and am kicking myself for not having read the book earlier and for having listened to people who said it's impossible to read and understand because of the long sentences and page-long paragraphs. Reading it is slow but really worth it. I am actually reading it first in French and once I have finished, I shall read it in English. Proust 'reads' people and judges them - not at first sight, but once he figures them out, no one is spared his sarcasm, not princes, princesses, anyone!

Very nicely packaged and presented. I particularly like the way the pages stay open, which makes it an easier read and stay focused upon the text (which for me takes a fair degree of concentration). I will keep returning to this work of literature throughout my life to enrich it and help me see the world through Proust's eyes.

Prestigious, a Collector's Choice, The best complete box set for ( In search of lost time ). The most acclaimed English translation, High quality packaging & printing. Highly recommended.

I bought this collection years ago but it's just too daunting. It's now in a cardboard box in the attic. I feel like a failure. Perhaps I am intellectually challenged? Actually, I don't know anyone who has read the whole collection. I was trying to impress a boy - obvs. I am now married and watching Jeremy Kyle - oh how the mighty are fallen. Maybe I will re list it?

I like a cover and all the delivery 'picture'. I'll recommend the purse to my family members.Many thanks,Eva

Superb edition of the timeless classic (no pun intended). A must read.

good delivery and good value for money

OK, cut to the chase: this is the best englishing of Proust to date, unlikely to be bettered, in a beautifully printed and presented edition...At a good price too. My 89-year old mother is approaching the end of volume one and, at her present rate, will certainly get much further than I ever did. Finished by Christmas no doubt.Go on, take it on - unless you read French, in which case it's the Garnier.
