The Captive & The Fugitive: In Search of Lost Time, Vol. V

The Captive & The Fugitive: In Search of Lost Time, Vol. V (Modern Library Classics)

The Modern Libraryâ€™s fifth volume of In Search of Lost Time contains both The Captive (1923) and The Fugitive (1925). In The Captive, Proustâ€™s narrator describes living in his motherâ€™s Paris apartment with his lover, Albertine, and subsequently falling out of love with her. In The Fugitive, the narrator loses Albertine forever. Rich with irony, The Captive and The Fugitive inspire meditations on desire, sexual love, music, and the art of introspection.

For this authoritative English-language edition, D. J. Enright has revised the late Terence Kilmartinâ€™s acclaimed reworking of C. K. Scott Moncrieffâ€™s translation to take into account the new definitive French editions of Ã la recherchÃ© du temps perdu (the final volume of these new editions was published by the BibliothÃ¨que de la PlÃ©iade in 1989).
