Synopsis

This book explores the origins of Marcel Proust's A la recherche du temps perdu in an earlier, unfinished novel, Jean Santeuil. Using close readings of early unpublished versions of the work, the author offers a further elucidation of the meaning of this rich and complex novel and its evolution into a modernist work.
