With its sweeping digressions into the past and reflections on the nature of memory, 'In search of lost time' remains one of the most influential and yet endlessly challenging works of twentieth-century literature. Now, Stephane Heuet beautifully re-presents Proust in graphic form for anyone who has ever wanted to read him, but felt daunted by the magnitude of the undertaking. In this first volume, 'Swann's way', the narrator, Marcel, an aspiring writer, recalls his childhood when - in a now immortal moment in literature - the taste of a madeleine dipped in tea unleashes a torrent of memories about his family's country home in the town of Combray.
