It does so by arguing that the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche, as both a conceptual instrument and a largely unnoticed influence on Nabokov himself, can help to untie some of these knots. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe study addresses the fundamental problems in Nabokov's writing that make his work perplexing, mysterious and frequently \u003ci\u003euneasy\u003c\/i\u003e rather than simply focusing on the literary puzzles and games that, although inherent, do not necessarily define his body of work. Michael Rodgers shows that Nietzsche’s philosophy provides new, but not always palatable, perspectives in order to negotiate interpretative impasses, and that the uneasy aspects of Nabokov’s work offer the reader manifold rewards.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing Plc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54218205593944,"sku":"9781501359132","price":43.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781501359132.jpg?v=1770265816","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/nabokov-and-nietzsche","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
