About this audiobook
In Time Regained, the concluding volume of Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time, the long arc of memory, desire, society, and art reaches its philosophical resolution. Set amid the disruptions of the First World War and the altered world of postwar Paris, the novel returns the narrator to the salons and figures that have shaped his consciousness. Proust's sinuous, analytic prose transforms social observation into metaphysical inquiry, revealing involuntary memory as the foundation of artistic creation and personal truth. Marcel Proust, born into the cultivated milieu of fin-de-siècle Paris, drew deeply on his experiences of aristocratic salons, illness, aesthetic devotion, and social marginality. His lifelong sensitivity to time, perception, and emotional nuance enabled him to turn autobiography into one of modern literature's most ambitious imaginative structures. Time Regained reflects the mature culmination of his artistic theory: that life becomes fully intelligible only when transfigured by art. This Modern Classics edition is indispensable for readers who have followed Proust's vast novel and for those interested in modernism's highest achievements. It rewards patience with extraordinary insight into memory, mortality, and the vocation of the artist.
