46 - Turpitude Dude: Vladimir Nabokov's Invitation to a Beheading
Drama! Comedy! Opacity! Turpitude! All are up for grabs in Vladimir Nabokov's holiday classic, Invitation to a Beheading. Listen in as Nathan, David, and Nick try to figure out just what exactly is going on in Nabokov's oft-overlooked gem that may or may not be about: personal exile, political exile, gnosticism, or the inability to get a good night's sleep. Just don't call it Kafka-esque (even though it's definitely Kafka-esque).
