NPPF Preliminary

[jbor]

Sorry, meant to quote this paragraph from Ron Rosenbaum's essay:

    It's not a mere academic question, the narrator enigma in _Pale
    Fire_, it's not a quibble. It goes to the heart of the mystery
    within the fathomlessly refractive mirror-world of the novel, a
    question about the nature of its design, of the design of creation
    itself.
