Proust, Marcel: Swann's Way, v.1.5, 24 Dec 2007
Swann's Way is the first novel in Proust's 'Remembrance of Things Past' - one of the classics of world literature.
This is the C K Scott Moncrieff Translation. I am posting a completely new version. This corrects a number of typos, and has accents restored, emdashes, curly quotes and better italics. Please pm me if you find anything else that needs correcting. I have transcribed the first two volumes of this series and hope to do the rest before long. In the meantime, try the versions at feedbooks for the rest. This work is assumed to be in the Life+70 public domain OR the copyright holder has given specific permission for distribution.

Thanks for doing this. I was just dithering whether I could sell my set and free up about a foot of bookshelf space and had decided not to because there are so many typos, etc., in the public domain books (usually). If you think of it, let me know as you get them done, and if you want help, also let me know.
