SYNOPSIS
One of the twentieth century’s greatest novelists offers his take on the Spanish classic.
The author of Lolita and Pale Fire was not only a master of fiction but a distinguished literary critic as well. In this collection of lectures, which he delivered at Harvard in the early 1950s, Vladimir Nabokov shares insights based on a chapter-by-chapter synopsis of the seventeenth-century novel by Miguel de Cervantes, a timeless classic and one of the most deeply influential works in all of Western literature.
Rejecting the common interpretation of Don Quixote as a warm satire, Nabokov perceives the work as a catalog of cruelty through which the gaunt knight passes. Edited and with a preface by Fredson Bowers, this volume offers "a powerful, critical, and dramatic elaboration of the theme of illusion" (V. S. Pritchett, The New York Review of Books).

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Vladimir Nabokov
Escritor norte-americano de origem russa, nascido em 1899 e falecido em 1977, exilou-se com a família na Inglaterra, França e Alemanha. Neste último país, escreveu, em russo, a primeira parte da sua obra literária, de entre a qual se destaca Mashenka e Glória.
Em 1940 partiu para os Estados Unidos da América, adquirindo a nacionalidade americana em 1945. Começou a escrever em inglês, mantendo, nas obras deste período, o fundo fantástico, a visão irónica da vida quotidiana e a mestria formal que já havia demonstrado, e almejou levar a cabo um retrato da sociedade norte-americana através das suas convenções culturais e posturas perante o sexo.
São dignas de nota as narrativas: "Invitation to a Beheading", "The Real Life of Sebastian Knight", "Lolita", um grande êxito editorial transposto para o cinema por S. Kubrick e cujo argumento se baseia nos amores de um homem adulto por uma adolescente, "Pale Fir", Pnin, Ada; or Ardor: A Family Chronicle" e "Speak Memory".
