"Pale Fire" (1962) is Vladimir Nabokov's most unusual work in form, consisting of an epigraph, a 999-line poem of the same name, a preface to it, an extensive commentary, and an index. The circumstances of John Shade's composition of the brilliant poem in the last weeks of his life are refracted in the fantastic prism of the commentary composed by Charles Kinbote, an enigmatic and lonely admirer of the American poet, who fills the world of "Pale Fire" with his own creative experience, memories and fears. In this edition, the novel is printed in Vera Nabokova's translation.
