The Eye (Vintage International)
Vladimir Nabokov
Nabokov's fourth novel, The Eye
is as much a farcical detective story as it is a profoundly refractive
tale about the vicissitudes of identities and appearances. Nabokov's
protagonist, Smurov, is a lovelorn, excruciatingly self-conscious
Russian émigré living in pre-war Berlin, who takes his own life after
being humiliated by a jealous husband, only to suffer even greater
indignities in the afterlife.
