Time Regained: Chapter One
Track length4:42
Robert came several times to Tansonville while I was there.
Track length5:55
Francoise, who had already seen…
Track length5:46
One day when Robert was due to come to Tansonville…
Track length5:22
As for that love he kept talking to me about…
Track length4:13
Once Robert had gone off again…
Track length5:26
It occurred to me that it was because Robert had…
Track length6:11
'The day before yesterday…'
Track length5:46
'You Westerners find that impossible to understand…'
Track length4:58
When I spoke to Verdurin of the subtle pleasure…
Track length5:46
'Yes, I give you my word…'
Track length4:39
Hearing this, Doctor Cottard…
Track length3:39
I stopped there…
Track length5:40
The result of this was…
Track length4:29
Thus it was that the Goncourts' journal had revealed to me…
Track length4:47
I had realised earlier that it is not the most witty…
Track length5:25
Chapter Two
Track length4:26
'The sadness of the present moment, it is true…'
Track length5:00
Saint-Euverte's salon had a faded image…
Track length6:16
M. Bontemps would not hear of peace…
Track length5:38
Now Morel ought not to have been there…
Track length4:53
These words, which would have injured…
Track length6:42
Before the time when the afternoon teas came to an end…
Track length5:16
The silhouettes of the trees were reflected sharply…
Track length4:58
'Have you heard,' he asked me as he left…
Track length6:11
Bloch left us at the door of his house…
Track length5:31
Robert (who at the time seemed to me much more a Saint-Loup…)
Track length5:50
No doubt the boy was fed up with going up…
Track length5:49
One might have thought that I was the only person…
Track length6:04
Whether the German staff officers had indeed behaved well…
Track length5:47
It was no good the general telling the man…
Track length4:51
'In a word, Gilberte now believed…'
Track length4:12
When Saint-Loup had come into my room…
Track length5:39
In certain respects the comparison was not a false one.
Track length6:03
Later he was to say to me…
Track length7:03
While recalling Saint-Loup's visit…
Track length4:54
One might say that in his case…
Track length6:10
And thinking probably…
Track length5:08
Thus it was that when seeking to hurt the baron…
Track length6:31
However, even if M. de Charlus and Mme. Verdurin…
Track length6:05
However, just as there are animals' bodies and human bodies…
Track length6:14
M. de Charlus went further…
Track length7:14
For M. de Charlus, therefore…
Track length5:00
The war was going on for ever…
Track length6:35
'It's a strange thing too,' M. de Charlus added…
Track length5:27
The Duc de Guermantes' opinions had quickly changed.
Track length5:11
It's quite obvious that those peoples…
Track length4:11
And since M. de Charlus began to be extraordinarily childish…
Track length6:44
M. de Charlus was right about that.
Track length6:05
So it was that journalism…
Track length4:43
Her fury with Brichot increased all the more…
Track length4:33
'I don't know, old chap,' M. de Charlus went on…
Track length7:07
'The symbol of it,' I replied.
Track length5:21
I would be very surprised…
Track length6:34
'You must admit that would be very funny,' he said.
Track length4:46
What is more, M. de Charlus literally did not know which way to turn…
Track length5:49
The night was just as lovely as it had been in 1914…
Track length5:52
At this point the violinist…
Track length5:52
I then understood Morel's fear.
Track length4:05
'I admire all the heroes in this war,' he said.
Track length5:06
It was a transparent night…
Track length4:51
Something did strike me, though…
Track length5:10
'It's amazing the boss isn't back…'
Track length5:58
The oldest member of the group…
Track length5:19
All at once the door opened and someone entered…
Track length4:59
The baron even felt slightly resentful towards Jupien…
Track length4:57
A relationship with a woman one loves…
Track length5:52
I made my way downstairs…
Track length5:30
However, it was no good his suggesting…
Track length4:48
He anyway had no other room to offer me.
Track length5:36
'I don't doubt for a single moment…'
Track length4:27
It was no good the young man…
Track length4:50
'Apparently he's got a million francs a day to burn through.'
Track length6:04
'The main reason I did that,' added Jupien…
Track length5:48
Jupien appeared to be very troubled by what I had said…
Track length6:13
The moment the alarm had sounded…
Track length5:16
Nonetheless the darkness went on…
Track length5:43
As for M. de Charlus…
Track length5:26
Now, aberrations are like love affairs…
Track length5:24
I advised Francoise and the butler to go and get some sleep.
Track length6:44
Francoise was all the more troubled by these remarks…
Track length5:28
Every morning at six o'clock…
Track length4:20
I recalled his arrival that first time at Balbec…
Track length4:57
Francoise received the news…
Track length6:29
He must have been really magnificent in those final hours.
Track length5:33
If not through his death…
Track length6:17
Chapter Three
Track length4:38
My long absence from Paris…
Track length6:03
For me there was one good thing at least…
Track length5:02
The most moving thing, though…
Track length4:14
Mme. de Saint-Euverte's snobbery…
Track length5:52
At that moment the Duchesse de Letourville…
Track length6:08
I need not add…
Track length4:57
Turning the sad thoughts I was mentioning a moment ago…
Track length4:37
While asking myself this question…
Track length4:33
The piece of music being played…
Track length5:51
I glossed swiftly over all that…
Track length6:52
However, this optical illusion…
Track length6:28
This meant that the person within me…
Track length6:07
Impressions such as those I was trying to pin down…
Track length5:08
And even as I thought this…
Track length5:30
A slanting ray from the setting sun…
Track length6:48
'No more style,' people had said at the time,…
Track length5:24
Thus it was that for me that book…
Track length4:47
If I see a thing from another period…
Track length5:18
The library I would build up for myself in this way…
Track length5:42
An hour is not just an hour…
Track length6:40
Even when it comes to artistic joys…
Track length5:55
That group imagined that this was the criterion…
Track length5:41
How could descriptive literature possibly have any value…
Track length5:17
And it was certainly very tempting…
Track length5:54
As for the truths that the intellect…
Track length4:50
In this matter, the very comparisons which are false…
Track length3:30
It is not certain that imagination…
Track length5:04
Moreover, I felt infinite sympathy…
Track length5:36
From this first point of view…
Track length5:09
If we had no rivals, pleasure would not turn into love.
Track length5:25
Just as the painter needs to have seen many churches…
Track length5:39
I was perhaps wrong…
Track length5:15
A writer says 'my reader' …
Track length6:17
What made it possible that this perverse way of thinking…
Track length5:20
I had seen nobles become vulgar…
Track length6:29
Jealousy is a good recruiting sergeant…
Track length5:49
I was going to try to find the objective reason…
Track length6:18
Initially I could not understand…
Track length5:27
Even supposing that d'Argencourt had the same desire to smile…
Track length5:55
This was a puppet-show featuring dolls…
Track length4:45
As for the woman whose lover M. d'Argencourt had been…
Track length6:45
The letter from this friend I had dreamed of having…
Track length6:08
When somebody, hearing that I was unwell…
Track length5:27
In certain people the replacement of each cell by a series of others…
Track length5:41
There was no doubt that the cruel discovery I had just made…
Track length5:06
I asked M. de Cambremer how his mother was.
Track length6:49
In several people I ended up recognising not only their actual selves…
Track length6:19
Certain faces, beneath their hood of white hair…
Track length5:19
It was difficult to reconcile the two aspects…
Track length6:43
The women tried to stay in touch…
Track length5:32
The old men whose features had changed…
Track length5:40
Nonetheless it is necessary to make one reservation…
Track length6:33
Just as a candidate at the baccalaureat…
Track length5:31
Someone who had been a minister before the Boulangist period…
Track length4:54
Mme. de Forcheville's appearance was so miraculous…
Track length4:59
Mme. de Forcheville's eyes, which were still very lovely…
Track length6:02
'You may be painting too rosy a picture of it all,' he said to me.
Track length5:40
On the other hand, it was possibly true…
Track length5:49
Certain foreigners who, when I had begun to move in society…
Track length5:49
During the war, Bloch had stopped 'going out'…
Track length6:52
In the end, after an elderly man…
Track length5:17
The woman who was a friend of Bloch…
Track length5:51
For the rest, one does have to say…
Track length5:16
It is true to say that having been impertinent…
Track length6:31
I must have so shocked men…
Track length5:11
There is no doubt that Bloch had formerly been…
Track length4:34
Not only do certain people have a good memory…
Track length5:24
It was not only the appearance of these individuals…
Track length5:44
Our parallel lives were like the edges…
Track length4:40
'What's the news of the Marquise d'Arpajon?'
Track length5:37
The spinster spotted that her mother…
Track length5:47
I had sat down beside Gilberte de Saint-Loup.
Track length5:46
'There is one aspect of war he was beginning to notice,' I said to her…
Track length5:36
'But how is it that you come to receptions…'
Track length5:25
And anyway, was it not in order to concern myself…
Track length5:54
As I looked at Gilberte I did not think…
Track length5:10
Now, the law that had governed the dreams of each year…
Track length6:10
The duchess was still hesitating…
Track length5:12
Now meanwhile, at the other end of Paris…
Track length5:14
Unfortunately these notes merely allowed her son-in-law…
Track length5:38
Berma uttered not a word of reproach…
Track length4:29
All the guests looked at one another…
Track length5:04
While this woman reciting La Fontaine's loveliest lines…
Track length5:39
I realised that the passage of time…
Track length6:21
However, since the talent of the best writers often dries up…
Track length5:33
'I can't tell you how pleased I am to see you,' the duchess continued.
Track length5:58
To her, though…
Track length5:29
The past had become so transformed…
Track length6:02
The judgements the duchess then pronounced on Rachel…
Track length5:49
In the antechamber, where the couple's wait had gone…
Track length5:20
The life of the duchess went on being very unhappy too…
Track length5:03
I would certainly not have recognised him…
Track length4:43
Thus it was that the apparently impregnable positions…
Track length5:39
In fact every time I subsequently tried to see her I failed to do so…
Track length4:57
There is not necessarily any contradiction, though…
Track length7:19
To greet the duchess, she slightly bowed her fine head…
Track length4:55
'But how can I talk to you about stupid things like that?
Track length5:00
However, she did not pursue her thoughts…
Track length4:51
Later on this daughter…
Track length5:50
One might say that if I tried not to use it unconsciously…
Track length6:05
How happy anyone who could write such a book would be…
Track length5:57
The papers that Francoise called my paperies…
Track length6:05
It was not like that now.
Track length5:16
Now it did not trouble me…
Track length5:47
One of my selves…
Track length5:33
All at once, though, after a month…
Track length5:51
I myself had to write something different…
Track length4:50
I could, although the mistake would be more serious…
Track length4:54
At that very moment, in the Prince de Guermantes' mansion…
