Sodom and Gomorrah Hardback - 2004

by Marcel Proust, translated by John Sturrock

Like its predecessors, this wonderful new translation is certain to be hailed as a literary event, bringing us a more rich, comic, and lucid Proust than American readers have previously been able to enjoy.

In this fourth volume, Proust's novel takes up for the first time the theme of homosexual love and examines how destructive sexual jealousy can be for those who suffer it. Sodom and Gomorrah is also an unforgiving analysis of both the decadent high society of Paris and the rise of a philistine bourgeoisie that will inevitably supplant it.

Poetic, even transcendant . . . John Sturrock is pitch-perfect equally at home with its intimacies and its bitter comedy. (Frank Wynne, The Irish Times)
