The Tragedy of Mister Morn by Vladimir Nabokov

3.0

---

While it was interesting to see how Nabokov wrote way back when he started (many little details that came around again, especially in Pale Fire), I think his genius with words is somewhat lost in a play. When Nabokov is not limited to what the characters on the stage can say, when he can describe the scene in some compelling narrator's voice, that is when he is at his best.
