The Chomsky-Foucault Debate: On Human Nature
Two of the twentieth century's most influential thinkers debate a perennial question.

This is typical brilliant Nabokov, with plenty of detail and mysterious threads laid down throughout that the imaginative can choose to follow or ignore. Because it was written in English rather than translated, Nabokov's prose is at its most powerful and organic - by far.

You won't be disappointed.
