In Search of Lost Time. General Editor: Christopher Prendergast.
London: Allen Lane (The Penguin Press), 2002. 8vo. 6 volumes, set. Firsts thus. Original black cloth, gilt. Fine in fine dust-wrappers. Item #6179
Each volume has a separate translator (Lydia Davis, James Grieve, Mark Treharne, John Sturrock, Carol Clark and Peter Collier, & Ian Patterson). The first new translation into English since Scott Moncreiff's original version sounds as if it might have been produced by a committee but is actually a triumph. A fine set.
Price: £325.00
