Monday Mar 18, 2024
This week, I am joined by Dan Hawkins, librarian at the Citadel and repeat Bookin' podcast guest (see the Emergency Cormac McCarthy episode). Dan discusses Pale Fire by Vladimir Nabokov, one of the greatest novels of all-time. Topics of discussion include Robert Frost, J.R.R. Tolkien, unreliable narrators, the very loud amusement park right outside of Charles Kinbote's lodgings, Lolita, chess problems, Hopscotch, and much more. Copies of Pale Fire can be purchased here. Thank you to the North Carolina Book Festival for presenting this episode.
