Book Description:

An exiled princess from the Caucasus arrives in America, becomes the newest resident of a faculty mansion inhabited by ghosts and drunks, and befriends a smiling lad of twelve who is just to her taste. A wicked turn on Nabokov's most celebrated novel, a wild send-up of the literary and publishing worlds, and a masterwork of illusion and allusion, this is "superbly crafted, foxy, engaging, funny, joyous" (D. M. Thomas, Los Angeles Times). Harvest American Writing series
