Invitation to a Bonfire by Adrienne Celt

5.0

Adrienne Celt’s INVITATION TO A BONFIRE tells the story of a great novelist, his wife and his mistress and was partly inspired by the famous Nabokov marriage. The story swept me up and kept me guessing, and I can heartily recommend it to all types of readers, whether you are a fan of Nabokov or his biggest critic. For those who love thrillers, this is a murder mystery that keeps the reader guessing until the last page. For those who love literary fiction, Celt captures Nabokov’s letters and writing in a fascinating way. And for people who just want a good story, the sexy love triangle and compelling characters—especially the women—will keep you reading. If you love MIKHAIL AND MARGARITA or historical fiction in general, you’ll devour this book.
