Summary
Accidentally witnessing an encounter between the Baron de Charlus and the tailor Jupien opens Marcel's eyes to a world hidden from him until now. Meanwhile his love for Albertine is poisoned by the suspicion that she is attracted to her own sex. Sodom and Gomorrah (Cities of the Plain), Part I, the fourth volume of Marcel Proust's monumental, seven volume Remembrance of Things Past, addresses the subject of homosexual love with insight and understanding. Marcel continues his voyage of discovery though the homosexual world in Sodom and Gomorrah, Part 2.

Marcel Proust was an early 20th-century French author and one of the world’s most respected writers. Sodom and Gomorrah is the fourth volume of Proust’s colossal, seven-volume literary masterpiece, In Search of Lost Time.
Famously challenging with passages full of some of the most beautiful prose you will ever hear, this is a thoughtful and extremely cerebral (remember, this is Proust we’re talking about here) rumination on human consciousness, homosexual love, societal mores, and yes, time. Narrated with cultured appreciation by Neville Jason.
