About This Item
Text is clean and unmarked in a square and tight binding. Front binding is slightly worn at the corners. DJ has a small chip on the top outside edge with slight smudging. Previous owner's name on the inside front binding and attached page. From the front DJ, "...Nabokov...works his perverse magic in more than one dimension. On the surface, this is a literary detective story - subtle, intricate, and built to a tantalizing climax. On another level, it has pungent points to make about the role of the creative artist in a society that is basically hostile to art."
