Revenge

Nabokov, Vladimir Vladimirovich, 1899-19772025
Books
A bashful dragon, a lost wood-sprite, the prophet Elijah and the Devil disguised as a middle-aged woman appear in these playful, exuberant stories by Vladimir Nabokov. So do a vengeful husband, a barber confronting his torturer and the author himself, as he recalls his first love. Each of the 13 tales here enchants and enraptures us, only to gleefully confound our expectations.
