Synopsis
In CITIES OF THE PLAIN (also known as SODOM AND GOMORRAH), Marcel continues his forays into the aristocratic society into which he has finally been admitted, finding satisfaction but a growing disillusionment as well, and is both fascinated and repelled by the world of the flamboyant homosexual Baron de Charlus, and reports on the intricate, hypocritical, and sometimes noble attitudes on the part of his characters toward the Dreyfus case. He also begins the doomed cycle of attraction, jealousy, and suspicion with Albertine that will characterize the next two parts of the novel. And, in CITIES OF THE PLAIN, Swann, one of Proust's pivotal characters, meets his end.

Industry Reviews
"In spite of his independent manner, Proust has managed to inspire his novel with the prudent technical virtues of suspense and unity. These signs of formal interest are what make 'Remembrance of Things Past' a novel, rather than mere rambling reminiscence....It is held together by a method analogous to that which unifies actual human experience, repetition of events, physical and mental. "
New York Times Book Review - Rose Lee (07/05/1925)

"After all is said one is forced to utter the same comment: Proust is the greatest novelist of our age."
Contemporary Authors - Angel Flores (03/16/1930)

"Marcel Proust is perhaps the greatest psychological novelist of his generation....His lucidities are hidden. He does nothing at all to help you. If you would read him the effort must be yours. He does not descend even one step to meet you. He sits in a certain splendid isolation and demands that you come to him if you will."
Clark
