Beschreibung
Unlock the more straightforward side of Pale Fire with this concise and insightful summary and analysis!
This engaging summary presents an analysis of
Pale Fire by Vladimir Nabokov. The book takes its name from a 999-line poem by the celebrated American poet John Shade, which is accompanied by a lengthy commentary by his editor Charles Kinbote. After Shade’s untimely death, Kinbote contrives to secure the rights to edit the poem from his widow, but much of the commentary that follows is focused on his own preoccupations and paranoia, particularly with regard to his homeland of Zembla. The resulting work is a brilliant piece of metafiction which showcases Nabokov’s mastery of style and form and leaves the reader continually unsure of Kinbote’s true identity and relationship to John Shade.
