Book Synopsis The Magician's Doubts by : Michael Wood
Book excerpt: As a child in Russia, Vladimir Nabokov enjoyed conjuring. In this engrossing book, Princeton's Michael Wood explores the blend of arrogance and mischief that makes Nabokov such a fascinating and elusive master of fiction. "Wood's book is . . . so acute in its insights, so replete with clear thoughts . . . . (It) offers us an entirely new set of insights into the work of a modern master".--THE NEW YORK REVIEW OF BOOKS.
