Written in a lush, impressionistic style, Proust employs long, flowing sentences that mirror the complexities of human thought and experience. The novel introduces readers to Charles Swann, a wealthy man caught in a tempest of obsessive love for Odette de Crécy, while simultaneously exploring the nature of art and the profound impact of recollections that define our identities. Set against the backdrop of late 19th-early 20th century French society, this work encapsulates the zeitgeist of its era, emphasizing the intricacies of social relationships and the fragility of happiness.
