Synopsis
In the centenary year of Nabokov's birth, eleven of the world's foremost Nabokov scholars offer original essays on the writer and his fiction. They cover a broad range of topics and approaches, from close readings of major texts to penetrating discussions of the relationship between Nabokov's personal beliefs and experiences and his art. There is a first glimpse at a recently published work, The Tragedy of Mr. Morn, and a fresh perspective on Nabokov's most famous novel, Lolita.

Review
"Read this collection; it is challenging in its strong readings, and I salute it." Irving Malin, Review of Contemporary Fiction
"All of the essays in the volume mark significant steps forward in Nabokov scholarship...The editor is to be commended for offering an anthology which deserves no just to be read, but also to be reread." Slavic and East European Journal
"The collection presents not only a substantive sampling of diverse areas of critical inquiry at the end of the fourth decade of serious Nabokov scholarship, but offers a home to several of the most interesting individual pieces that have been published in those forty years." Stephen Jan Parker, The Russian Review

Hardcover. Condition: Like New. First Edition. A nearly new hardback with no defects, just a few hardly noticeable rubs and bumps and a 'damaged' stamp to one of the preliminary pages. Despite such this book looks and feels unread with contents that are crisp, fresh and tight. Thus a very nice book in great condition, now offered for sale at a reasonable price.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. To mark the centenary of Vladimir Nabokov's birth, this volume brings together the work of eleven of the world's foremost Nabokov scholars offering new perpectives on the writer and his fiction. Their essays cover a broad range of topics and approaches, from close readings of major texts, including Speak, Memory and Pale Fire, to penetrating discussions of the significant relationship between Nabokov's personal beliefs and experiences and his art. Several of the essays attempt to uncover the artistic principles that underlie the author's literary creations, while others seek to place Nabokov's work in a variety of literary and cultural contexts. Among these essays are a first glimpse at a recently published and little-known work, The Tragedy of Mr Morn, as well as a fresh perspective on Nabokov's most famous novel, Lolita. The volume as a whole offers valuable insight into the future direction of Nabokov scholarship. In the centenary year of Nabokov's birth, eleven of the world's foremost Nabokov scholars offer original essays on the writer and his fiction. Readings of major texts, including Lolita, and discussions of the relationship between Nabokov's beliefs and experiences, and his art, point to the future direction of Nabokov scholarship.
