Remembrance of Things Past is one of the monuments of 20th-century literature. Neville Jason's unabridged recording of the work runs to 150 hours. Time Regained is the final volume. Lost in the blacked-out streets of Paris during the First World War, Marcel stumbles into a brothel and accidentally witnesses a shocking scene involving the Baron de Charlus. Later, at a reception given by the Prince de Guermates, his meditations on the passage of time lead to his determination to embark on his life's work at last. Based on the translation by David Whiting.

      Considered to be one of the most important works in Western literature, REMEMBRANCE OF THINGS PAST would be a formidable undertaking for many readers. Page-long sentences, three-page paragraphs, and entire chapters in which virtually no "action" takes place (save the passage of time, and sometimes little of that) make it difficult to decipher the course of Proust's reflections. Listening to Neville Jason's nuanced reading of TIME REGAINED--the final volume of Proust's work--helps. His deft pacing and selective emphasis enhance comprehensibility and create an opportunity for deeper understanding. Jason's notes on the author and his work, provided in an enclosed booklet, contribute a revelatory context. T.J.W. (c) AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine
