Remembrance of Things Past is one of the monuments of 20th century literature. Within a Budding Grove is the second of seven volumes. The young narrator, experiencing his youthful sexuality, falls under the spell of a group of adolescent girls, succumbs to the charms of the enchanting Gilberte, and visits a brothel where he meets Rachel. His impressions of life are also stimulated by the painter, Elstir, and his encounter with another girl, Albertine.

If you could sum up Within a Budding Grove in three words, what would they be?
A Budding Grove.
The narrator and his friends are all budding, adolescents dreaming and exploring, life,art, each other; yet it is a wavering, though generally horizontal timeline. The narrator has to constantly alter his past, childish, passions, and occasionally glances at the future.
Have you listened to any of Neville Jason’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Only the previous novel in the series, 'Swann's Way'. They are both extraordinary. I have read the books more than once, yet I heard things I hadn't noticed, in his performance.
I could not imagine, before hearing him, how someone could read a sentence a page long and make it completely clear!

Not very satisfactory.

Reading is very variable. At least one reader very inadequate: no sense of the metre, or the meaning of the poetry.
It would be wonderful to hear some slightly more recent great Shakespearean actors doing the sonnets.
