Enlightening Work of Nabokov's Short Fiction
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This piece really does deserve credit. I am a ferocious devourer of Nabokov Criticism and this is one of the best works I've ever read. I have not worked through the whole thing but I use it often as a resource to my studies. The analysis of The Return of Chorb is especially brilliant and insightful, the several possibilities as to the name of Chorb were creative and compelling. I have a vast collection of Nabokov criticism from Stegner to Boyd, and this nice work joyously gets taken off the shelve to get played with quite often in comparison to many of the others.
