Publisher's Synopsis
Praised by Le Monde as Julia Kristeva's most important work to date, Time and Sense is a major reassessment of Marcel Proust and In Search of Lost Time. Not only a meditation on Proust, this is a commentary on how the experience of literature is manifested in time and sensation. Kristeva uses Proust as a starting point to reflect upon broader notions of character, time, sensation, metaphor, and history.
