This is Nabokov's penultimate novel, a literary tour de force whose protagonist is Hugh Person, a young North American editor who goes on various trips to Switzerland over the years. It was here that his father travelled to for the last time in his life and where Hugh should meet a distinguished writer, but also his own ghosts. As a result of these trips, Pearson will fall in love, he will marry, he will become involved in an assassination, he will be imprisoned, he will fall into a period of madness and then he will investigate the enigmas of the past. A disturbing novel of perverse humour and intense lyricism. / Esta es la penúltima novela de Nabokov, un tour de force literario protagonizado por Hugh Person, un joven editor norteamericano que realiza varios viajes a Suiza a lo largo de los años. Allí viajó su padre por última vez en su vida y allí deberá encontrarse Hugh con un distinguido escritor, pero también con sus propios fantasmas. Y, como resultado de esos viajes, Person se enamorará, se casará, se verá envuelto en un asesinato, será encarcelado, se sumirá en un periodo de locura e indagará en los enigmas de su pasado. Una inquietante nouvelle perversamente cómica e intensamente lírica.
