Pale Fire – April 23, 1989
In Pale Fire Nabokov offers a cornucopia of deceptive pleasures: a 999-line poem by the reclusive genius
John Shade; an adoring foreword and commentary by Shade's self-styled Boswell, Dr. Charles Kinbote;
a darkly comic novel of suspense, literary idolatry and one-upmanship, and political intrigue.
