About This Item
Harper & Row, 1979. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. The literary correspondence between two giants of the 20th century, a correspondence that broke off abruptly after Wilson's harsh (and to Nabokov, incomprehensibly ignorant) review of Nabokov's translation of Eugene Onegin; there is a sad coda of a brief exchange many years later. A clean tight unmarked cop; dust jacket is price-clipped and has a small sticker stin on the back panel. We ship all books promptly, carefully, and securely in strudy cartons, never in mailing bags.
