About the Book
A superb early postmodern classic by one of Nabokov’s fellow émigré writers, rediscovered after more than half a century
"This psychological novel takes stock of death, war, violence and the guilt that undergirds it all." — The New York Times Book Review
A man comes across a short story which recounts in minute detail his killing of a soldier, long ago - from the victim's point of view. It's a story that should not exist, and whose author can only be a dead man.
So begins the strange quest for its elusive writer: "Alexander Wolf."
A singular classic, The Spectre of Alexander Wolf is a psychological thriller and existential inquiry into guilt and redemption, coincidence and fate, love and death
