Ada, or Ardor: A Family Chronicle Paperback - 1990
by Vladimir Nabokov
From the jacket flap
Published two weeks after his seventieth birthday, Ada, or Ardor is one of Nabokov's greatest masterpieces, the glorious culmination of his career as a novelist. It tells a love story troubled by incest. But more: it is also at once a fairy tale, epic, philosophical treatise on the nature of time, parody of the history of the novel, and erotic catalogue. Ada, or Ardor is no less than the supreme work of an imagination at white heat.
This is the first American edition to include the extensive and ingeniously sardonic appendix by the author, written under the anagrammatic pseudonym Vivian Darkbloom.

Description:
UsedAcceptable. This copy has some shelf wear as if this book had spent some time tumbling around in a backpack or rucksack. A couple of pages look to be water damaged. The very last page which tells you about the author has been torn; only about a third of it is left. There is some underlining and notes in the margins. This would make a great reading/studying copy!
