Depuis le milieu des années 90, je relis périodiquement ce Feu pâle, pour confronter quelques récentes fuites dans de brumeuses montagnes avec celles de la Royale Zembla, espérant une heureuse coïncidence cristallisant enfin le champ de réalité qui subsiste, tarde, protège le plus évident récit de Nabokov.

If the introduction and notes are eccentric, the index is of a similar quality ... Kinbote's index is a symptom of his insanity. The integration of events described in the index into the text of Pale fire clearly qualifies this index as an example of indexes as fiction. The complex trail of cross-references by which the whole book may be alternatively read makes it possible also to regard this novel as an example of fiction as index. In fact, “Pale Fire” is a curiosity into which it is agreeable to dip rather than a book which can be read straight through with pleasure.

In Pale Fire, Nabokov offers a cornucopia of deceptive pleasures: a 999-line poem by the reclusive genius John Shade; an adoring foreword and commentary by Shade's self-styled Boswell, Dr. Charles Kinbote; a darkly comic novel of suspense, literary idolatry, one-upmanship, and political intrigue."This centaur work, half poem, half prose...is a creation of perfect beauty, symmetry, strangeness, originality and moral truth. Pretending to be a curio, it cannot disguise the fact that it is one of the great works of art of this century." -- Mary McCarthy Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
