Since this seems to be a general Nabokov
I'm currently in the middle of Pale Fire and I don't know, it's not grabbing me like his other work I've read. I did have high expectations. It's good, but I'm struggling through the commentary. There's parts in it that are really great, but the majority of it has been uninteresting for me
Am I missing something?
