Swann’s Way by Marcel Proust is a mesmerizing journey through memory and time. The novel opens with the narrator’s childhood in Combray, vividly recalling the sensory details of his surroundings. Proust’s prose is rich and evocative, drawing readers into the intricate world of his characters. I found myself lost in the beauty of his language, each page a delicate exploration of love, jealousy, and the passage of time.
The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.
