Title: Bend Sinister
Author: Vladimir Nabokov
ISBN: 9780679727279
Publisher: Vintage
Published: 1990
Binding: Paperback
Language: English
Condition: New
New from the publisher
Fiction 1693412
Publisher Description:
The first novel Nabokov wrote while living in America and the most overtly political novel he ever wrote, Bend Sinister is a modern classic. While it is filled with veiled puns and characteristically delightful wordplay, it is, first and foremost, a haunting and compelling narrative about a civilized man caught in the tyranny of a police state. Professor Adam Krug, the country's foremost philosopher, offers the only hope of resistance to Paduk, dictator and leader of the Party of the Average Man. In a folly of bureaucratic bungling and ineptitude, the government attempts to co-opt Krug's support in order to validate the new regime.
