Nabokov Bonus: Introducing The NewlyRead Game!

In the bonus episode on Nabokov's Pale Fire, Kylie and Dan discuss what characterizes Nabokov's sentence-level style. Then, they debut The NewlyReads game, a passage identification quiz designed to test the knowledge of the host who chose the novel under discussion. Can Dan identify which one of three passages comes from Pale Fire, and earn bonus points for ID-ing the authors of the other two passages? Can you, dear listener? Check out our Instagram page @thenewlyreads to see the quiz passages. Drop us a line at thenewlyreads@gmail.com to tell us how you did!We'll be back in two weeks, after a short spring break, to discuss D.H. Lawrence's Women in Love.
