Bend Sinister

Know about the book -

Bend Sinister is written by Vladimir Nabokov and published by Vintage. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0679727272 (ISBN 10) and 9780679727279 (ISBN 13).

The first novel Nabokov wrote while living in America and the most overtly political novel he ever wrote, Bend Sinister is a modern classic. While it is filled with veiled puns and characteristically delightful wordplay, it is, first and foremost, a haunting and compelling narrative about a civilized man caught in the tyranny of a police state. Professor Adam Krug, the country's foremost philosopher, offers the only hope of resistance to Paduk, dictator and leader of the Party of the Average Man. In a folly of bureaucratic bungling and ineptitude, the government attempts to co-opt Krug's support in order to validate the new regime.
