A novel constructed around the last great poem of a fictional American poet, John Shade, and an account of his death. The poem appears in full and the narrative develops through the lengthy, and increasingly eccentric, notes by his posthumous editor.

Reviews for Pale Fire

The title refers to the 999-line poem by John Shade which provides the starting point for the 'Zemblan' scholar Charles Kinbote's demented analysis. A wonderfully wicked satire on academic scholarship. (Kirkus UK)
