## Description

A taste of madeleine dipped in tea brings back the narrator's childhood holidays in the small town of Combray: his mother's goodnight kiss, two family walks and the neighbours glimpsed along them. At its heart is the story of Charles Swann, a polished Paris man of society, and his jealous, consuming love for Odette.
