Looking for lost period

A volume of the book A la Recherche du Temps Perdu (Looking for Lost Time) by Marcel Proust contains one of the longest sentence in French literature: 856 words.


Details:

Victo Hugo does almost as well in Les Misérables with 823 words between two full stops.
Of course there are other examples in constrained writing but they don’t really count.
