"This was an exciting rediscovery for the world us fans. You read it expecting it to be mature because his works have scrutinized over and over, but this is a voyage of his early development and requires old wines in new bottles. At any rate it is challenging for a different reason all together. It reads a lot like theater of the absurd--think Pirandello. A great experience." - Goodreads Reviewer

  • Mô tả

Morn, a masked king, rules over a realm to which he has restored order after a violent revolution. Secretly in love with Midia, the wife of a banished revolutionary, Morn finds himself facing renewed bloodshed and disaster when Midia's husband returns, provoking a duel and the return of chaos that Morn has fought so hard to prevent.

Nabokov's first major work and his only play, The Tragedy of Mister Morn is translated and published in English here for the first time, and is a moving study of the elusiveness of happiness, the power of imagination and the eternal battle between truth and fantasy.

'The most playful, lyrically virtuoso prose writer of his century, if not of all time.' Independent
