10 reviews for Pnin

  1. Abhiram J

    Pnin is a charmingly awkward character. Some parts dragged, but overall, a light and amusing read.

  2. Mohd. Aqdas

    A surprisingly touching story disguised as a comedy. Pnin’s vulnerability shines through. A rewarding read.

  3. Utkarsh Jaiswal

    Found it a bit slow-paced, but Pnin himself is quite lovable. The ending was particularly poignant. Worth reading if you enjoy character-driven stories.

  4. Roshan Kumar Yadav

    A delightful and quirky novel. Pnin is an endearing character, and the writing is superb. Highly recommended.

  5. Ashar Ahmad

    Pnin is a gem! Witty, heartwarming, and thought-provoking. I enjoyed every page and plan to reread it soon.

  6. Rohan

    I wanted to love it more, but the humor didn’t always land for me. Still, Nabokov’s skill is undeniable. A mixed bag.

  7. Abhinav Abhinav

    Nabokov’s wordplay is masterful. Pnin’s character resonated with me, especially his awkwardness. Recommend if you like satirical novels.

  8. Sumit Kumawat

    Nabokov’s prose is beautiful, but I struggled to connect with Pnin. A bit too academic for my taste, though I appreciated the humor.

  9. Gouri Sreekumar

    Absolutely hilarious! Pnin’s struggles are so relatable, even if exaggerated. I laughed out loud multiple times.

  10. Sweta Yadav

    While the writing is clever, I found Pnin to be a bit frustrating at times. His naivete wore thin after a while, but it’s still a classic.
