The narrator of the novel
A woman mails this character the cigarette case that he had left at her house, accompanied by a letter reading: "If only you had forgotten your heart! I should never have let you have that back." The narrator of the novel worships the pink hawthorn blossoms lining the path to this man's house. At his desk, this character keeps a photograph of Botticelli's fresco depicting Zipporah, because she resembles his lover. This character forms a powerful mental association between his beloved and the crescendos of Vinteuil's ("van-TUH-ee's") violin sonata, which he regularly hears as a guest at the salon of the Verdurins. The narrator of the novel In The Shadow of Young Girls in Flower falls in love with this man's daughter Gilberte ("zheel-BAIRT"). For 10 points, Odette de Crécy is the wife of what man, whose "Way" titles the first novel of Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time?
