Why the fuck does the board always freak out whenever someone says some shit about Dostoyevsky? This is a Nabokov thread for christ's sake. Writers have great prejudices; it's a symptom of writing 10+ books over your entire life.
Also anyone else think Ada is underated?

Does anyone else feel like this has been overlooked as a novel? It's certanly his most ambitious work. I am not sure if it is a masterpiece or failed masterpiece (which doesn't doesn't neccessarily make it a bad literary project; many great pieces have been failed pieces). Could it rival the other big novels of the century? Is it better than Proust's, Joyce's, Stein's, Kafka's major work? What do you think of Ada, or Ardor?
