Synopsis "The Sweet Cheat Gone Albertine Disparue "

This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentionalunintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!

Marcel Proust (Auteuil, Paris, 1871 – Paris, 1922) was a French novelist, critic, and essayist considered one of the most influential writers of the 20th century. He is famous for his monumental work In Search of Lost Time (À la recherche du temps perdu), a series of seven volumes published between 1913 and 1927, which explore memory, art, and French society of his time. Proust won the prestigious Goncourt Prize in 1919 for the second volume of the saga, In the Shadow of Young Girls in Flower. His innovative use of involuntary memory and the stream of consciousness technique deeply marked modern literature. Despite a life marked by illness and isolation, his work is today a universal reference and has been translated into numerous languages.
