In the third volume of the celebrated novel, a writer comes into his own and learns the way of the world in Paris.
Continuing the nameless narrator's voyage through his memories after
Within a Budding Grove,
The Guermantes Way finds him and his family entering Parisian high society. They have moved into a stately old town house owned by the Duke and Duchess de Guermantes in the Fauborg Saint-Germain district of Paris. Daily sightings of the duchess do nothing but fan the flames of the narrator's infatuation with her. So, of course, he falls in love once more. He also continues his journey as a writer, visiting aristocratic and literary salons where, beneath a thin veneer of manners, a battle for political, sexual, and social supremacy rages on...
Originally published in two volumes in 1920 and 1921,
The Guermantes Way explores the customs of Parisian society in Belle Époque France.
