{ Oct 2020 - Verified ebook } Paperback, 692 pages La Prisonnière first published 1923 Albertine disparue first published 1925 Penguin Classics (2003) Translation and Introduction by: Carol Clark, Peter Collier (2002) General Editor: Christopher Prendergast The Prisoner and The Fugitive fulfill Swann’s much earlier warning to Marcel: ‘Though the subjection of the woman may briefly allay the jealousy of the man, it eventually makes it even more demanding’, as Marcel and Albertine are locked in a cycle of mistrust that threatens both their identities. But these are also novels of great lyrical excitement and beauty – in the Parisian street cries, the Vinteuil concert and Proust’s virtuoso description of Venice. Above all, these two works deal with the theme of the explosion and impact of memory that runs throughout In Search of Lost Time, pointing the reader towards its resolution.
