Dark, anxious, fevered, 'The Prisoner And The Fugitive' fulfill Swann's much earlier warning to Marcel: 'Though the subjection of the woman may briefly allay the jealousy of the man, it eventually makes it even more demanding, He reaches the point of treating his mistress like one of those prisoners who are so closely guarded that the light in their cell is never turned off.'
Marcel's desperate relationship with Albertine now represents the despair of compromise and the closing off of the seemingly endless pathways of youth, as they become locked in a cycle of disappointment, mistrust and deceit that threatens to destroy both their identities.
