Description

Sodom and Gomorrah is also an unforgiving analysis of both the decadent high society of Paris and the rise of a philistine bourgeoisie that is on the way to supplanting it. Characters who had lesser roles earlier on now reappear in a different light andtake centre stage, notably Albertine, with whom the narrator believes he is in love, and the insanely haughty Baron de Charlus.
