The Eye - Vladimir Nabokov

Does anybody still read Nabokov? He seems to have fallen off the agenda rather since I was reading a lot of his stuff back in the early nineties.

The novella has somewhat reawakened my interest. The prose is wonderful in its precision and ability to control tone, and the tricksy plot is intriguing.
