520    A startling and revelatory examination of Nabokov's life 
       and works-notably Pale Fire and Lolita-bringing new 
       insight into one of the twentieth century's most enigmatic
       authors. Novelist Vladimir Nabokov witnessed the horrors 
       of his century, escaping Revolutionary Russia then Germany
       under Hitler, and fleeing France with his Jewish wife and 
       son just weeks before Paris fell to the Nazis. He 
       repeatedly faced accusations of turning a blind eye to 
       human suffering to write artful tales of depravity. But 
       does one of the greatest writers in the English language 
       really deserve the label of amoral aesthete bestowed on 
       him by so many critics? Using information from newly-
       declassified intelligence files and recovered military 
       history, journalist Andrea Pitzer argues that far from 
       being a proponent of art for art's sake, Vladimir Nabokov 
       managed to hide disturbing history in his fiction-history 
       that has gone unnoticed for decades. Nabokov emerges as a 
       kind of documentary conjurer, spending the most productive
       decades of his career recording a saga of forgotten 
       concentration camps and searing bigotry, from World War I 
       to the Gulag and the Holocaust. Lolita surrenders Humbert 
       Humbert's secret identity, and reveals a Nabokov appalled 
       by American anti-Semitism. The lunatic narrator of Pale 
       Fire recalls Russian tragedies that once haunted the 
       world. From Tsarist courts to Nazi film sets, from CIA 
       front organizations to wartime Casablanca, the story of 
       Nabokov's family is the story of his century-and both are 
       woven inextricably into his fiction.
