Nabokov offers a cornucopia of deceptive pleasures: This, the narrator tells us, is the real life of famous author Sebastian Knight, the inside story. After Knight's death, his half-brother sets out to penetrate the mystery of the famous English novelist's life, but he is impeded by the false, the distorted, the irreverent. Yet the search proves to be a story quite as intriguing as any of Sebastian Knight's own books, as baffling, and, in the end, as uniquely rewarding. Size: Octavo.

Fine in an unclipped near fine dust jacket with a little creasing and slight yellowing to the spine. "This centaur work, half-poem, half-prose . . . is a creation of perfect beauty, symmetry, strangeness, originality and moral truth. Pretending to be a curio, it cannot disguise the fact that it is one of the great works of art of this century" (Mary McCarthy). This brilliant parody of literary scholarship is also an experimental synthesis of Nabokovâ s talents for both poetry and prose. It extends and completes his mastery of unorthodox structureâ (Encyclopedia of Literature, 851). Listed by Modern Library as one of the 100 greatest novels of the twentieth century.
