...Hippie-Type Wanderers. Prior to last summer, "our educational system was still something that had not changed its form since the Ch'ing dynasty and had traces of Soviet revisionism in it," declared Chen Pota at a Peking University lecture recently. Now, in line with Mao's doctrine of putting politics in command, the humanities faculties will use Mao's work as textbooks and the class struggle will be the main subject.

A policeman asks a middle-aged, middle-class house-wife to house people who have been evacuated...
...that not only the poem but the commentary are Shade's work: he has absorbed Kinbote's theories and has fashioned the commentary as an extravagant coda to his own poem. This kind of argument about a possible fiction within a fiction -essentially, the was-Hamlet-reallymad type of argument-may seem academic to all but Nabokov's most devoted readers. But it testifies to the extraordinary reality that Nabokov imparts to his artificial world...
