Written in mischievous and magically flowing prose, "Ada or Ardor: A Family Chronicle" - Nabokov`s other great love story - offers even more sexual and imaginative surprises than Lolita. A romance that follows Ada from her first childhood meeting with Van on his uncle`s country estate, in a `dream-bright` America, through eighty years of rapture, Nabokov`s `longest, richest, most ambitious novel` also becomes, as Brian Boyd says, a great many other things: `myth, fairy tale, Utopian idyll, family chronicle, personal memoir, historical romance, erotic catalogue ... picture gallery and filmic folly`.
