LiteraryLeanings Book Discussion Group

Join us for a discussion of Pale Fire by Vladimir Nabokov. As one of Nabokov's more experimental novels, Pale Fire's story is told through a 999- line poem and one critic's response to it. The effect is a considerably satirical look at the literary world. Mary McCarthy referred to it as a "centaur work, half-poem, half-prose" and as "one of the great works of art" of the last century.
