LLEGA A ALFAGUARA UNA DE LAS OBRAS CUMBRE DE LA LITERATURA UNIVERSAL DEL SIGLO XX La gran saga narrativa sobre la memoria, el Tiempo y los paraÃsos perdidos «Su talento es para caer postrado .--Javier MarÃas «Durante años me acosté temprano... . Asà comienza En busca del tiempo perdido, considerada una obra maestra de la literatura universal, y una de las más influyentes en los ámbitos de las letras, el arte y la filosofÃa. Publicada en siete entregas, la primera de ellas, Por el camino de Swann, vio la luz en 1913. Esta nueva traducción de Mercedes López-Ballesteros, apadrinada por el escritor Javier MarÃas, quien llegó a leer entusiasmado la primera parte, es exacta, fiel y de gran aliento, y transmite certeramente el famoso estilo proustiano. En estas páginas deslumbran al lector las evocaciones de la infancia del narrador, sus inteligentes digresiones, los agudos diálogos y el retrato de personajes inolvidables, entre los que destaca Charles Swann. Alabado tanto por su estilo como por sus aportaciones estéticas, en este primer volumen de la saga ya se apuntan los grandes temas que preocupaban a Proust: el arte, la memoria, la naturaleza humana y, por supuesto, el Tiempo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The first volume of one of the greatest novels of the twentieth century, in Lydia Davis's award-winning translation
Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time is one of the most entertaining reading experiences in any language and arguably the finest novel of the twentieth century. But since its original prewar translation there has been no completely new version in English. Now, Penguin Classics brings Proust's masterpiece to new audiences throughout the world, beginning with Lydia Davis's internationally acclaimed translation of the first volume, Swann's Way. Swann's Way is one of the preeminent novels of childhood: a sensitive boy's impressions of his family and neighbors, all brought dazzlingly back to life years later by the taste of a madeleine. It also enfolds the short novel Swann in Love, an incomparable study of sexual jealousy that becomes a crucial part of the vast, unfolding structure of In Search of Lost Time. The first volume of the work that established Proust as one of the finest voices of the modern age--satirical, skeptical, confiding, and endlessly varied in his response to the human condition--Swann's Way also stands on its own as a perfect rendering of a life in art, of the past recreated through memory.
