Albertina Desaparecida

by Marcel Proust

Overview

Sexto y penúltimo volumen de la monumental obra maestra En busca del tiempo perdido.
Marcel Proust continúa la detallada y obsesiva narración de sus delirios amorosos, recreándose hasta la extenuación en la angustia del deseo y, de un modo muy particular, en los celos provocados por su amante Albertine. La reflexión sobre la amada ausente, el dolor por la pérdida del cuerpo deseado, trascienden la mera descripción minuciosa para erigirse en reflexión universal sobre el deseo y el paso del tiempo.

About the Author

Marcel Proust (1871-1922) was born in Auteuil, France. In his twenties, following a year in the army, he became a conspicuous society figure, frequenting the most fashionable Paris salons of the day. After 1899, however, his chronic asthma, the death of his parents, and his growing disillusionment with humanity caused him to lead an increasingly retired life. From 1907 on, he rarely emerged from a cork-lined room in his apartment on boulevard Haussmann. There he insulated himself against the distractions of city life and the effects of trees and flowers—though he loved them, they brought on his attacks of asthma. He slept by day and worked by night, writing letters and devoting himself to the completion of In Search of Lost Time.
