I skimmed, obviously, but this is a pretty good book. I at least understand why this one is revered.

So (intentionally) confusing that it becomes tedious. It's often so absurd that it seems plotless. Even Nabokov's gift with words can't keep this one from needing a major overhaul. Who cares about Cincinnatus C anyway? Not me.

nabokov és boníssim escrivint, però este relat se m'ha fet un poc aburrit de llegir. té aspectes guais i la farse que elaboren al voltant de la decapitació de cin-cin justifica moltes situacions surrealistes, però en general les parts avorrides/insulses em semblen més abundants que les mind-blowing

One of the best I’ve read so far. Funny, sad, engaging the whole way through for really not much happening. Not sure what the ending is supposed to mean. Easily the best writer I’ve read so far. Overall it was fire tho.
