SYNOPSIS
'The illegible signature of teetering disaster'
Three great stories--The Aurelian, Signs and Symbols and Lance--the last both a derisive attack on science-fiction and an attempt to imagine the real pain and horror that would accompany space travel.
Penguin Modern: fifty new books celebrating the pioneering spirit of the iconic Penguin Modern Classics series, with each one offering a concentrated hit of its contemporary, international flavour. Here are authors ranging from Kathy Acker to James Baldwin, Truman Capote to Stanislaw Lem and George Orwell to Shirley Jackson; essays radical and inspiring; poems moving and disturbing; stories surreal and fabulous; taking us from the deep South to modern Japan, New York's underground scene to the farthest reaches of outer space.

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".
