Publisher's summary

A BBC Radio six-part dramatisation of Marcel Proust's groundbreaking series of novels, tracing the extraordinary story of the author's own life. Starring James Wilby and Jonathan Firth, and with a distinguished cast including Harriet Walter, Imogen Stubbs, and Corin Redgrave, this rich, multi-layered adaptation brings out all the variety and subtlety of Proust's magnificent masterpiece.

Featuring a fictional version of himself - 'Marcel' - and a host of friends, acquaintances, and lovers, In Search of Lost Time is Proust's search for the key to the mysteries of memory, time, and consciousness. As he recalls his childhood days, the sad affair of Charles Swann and Odette de Crecy, his transition to manhood, the tortures of love and the ravages of war, he realises that the simplest of discoveries can lead to astonishing possibilities.

No Time Lost

Incredible performances, lovely music, and a story that shines through, even greatly abridged as this version is. Hopefully it can convince you to tackle the full thing.

Mucho más que un buen libro

Dicen que uno no lee un libro, sino que se lee a si mismo en ellos. Afortunado soy de haber tenido el gusto de encontrarme a mí mismo en "En busca del tiempo perdido".

The best Book I ever read.

This is a stunning masterpiece. It's a book about time itself and what our minds make of past, present and future, and about our relationships. It leaves you with the soft euphoria of having discovered something of paramount importance about life and about yourself.
