Within a Budding Grove

"'Swann's Way' is not a book to read on the train, skipping over the pages with one eye on the landscape; it is a book of true originality and profundity to the point of strangeness, claiming the reader's attention and even seizing it forcibly....A novel of analysis, yes; but I know of few novels in which the analysis penetrates so deep. At times you want to cry out, 'Enough!' as to a surgeon who spares no detail in describing an operation. Yet you never say it. You keep on turning the pages feverishly in order to see further into the souls of these characters."Proust, Marcel is the author of 'Within a Budding Grove', published 1998 under ISBN 9780375752193 and ISBN 0375752196.
