"Ce troisième volet de la Recherche est marqué par l'installation du narrateur et de sa famille dans un nouveau foyer, près de la demeure des Guermantes. Le quotidien de notre héros se trouve rythmé par la vie de ses prestigieux voisins, qu'il ne tarde pas à côtoyer grâce à la bienveillance de Saint-Loup.
L'entrée dans le "jeu de la vie mondaine" s'accompagne chez le narrateur d'un éveil à la sensualité. "
