About this book

The Captive and The Fugitive are the fifth and sixth volumes of In Search of Lost Time by Marcel Proust (1871-1922), published posthumously in 1923 and 1925 from the manuscripts he revised until his death. These books trace the narrator's jealous imprisonment of Albertine and the desolation of her flight and death, the long anatomy of love and loss at the heart of the novel. Scott Moncrieff's English version carried Proust to the anglophone world. The whole work stands among the supreme achievements of the modern novel.

Marcel Proust

In Search of Lost Time runs to something like a million and a quarter words across seven volumes, and Proust spent his last years in a cork-lined bedroom, asthmatic and nocturnal, expanding proofs until the printers despaired.
