I had a bad dream last night after reading the first chapter...

“Your mouth is nectar, but I die of thirst; Your face is Heaven, but I burn in fire.” I just finished the story of the two viziers, the best story in this book so far. How sad, how funny, how stupid all at the same time. I love it, I love it so much!

So far so good. Creepy and unreliable narrator - and Nabokov isn't even trying to get us to like him!

Wow, this author is pretentious! Or is it just the character? Hard to say because he made himself the protagonist of his novel. 🤷🏼‍♀️

“I felt like I had been suddenly shot out into space, the world I’d left behind terrible and frightening, only now I couldn’t breathe at all. I felt my blood quickly becoming starved of oxygen and my cells beginning to swell, and the stars around me grew brighter and then faded, and then nothing happened at all.”

The summons part, he described it so accurately ;___;
