From the back:
Another novel originally written in Russian, in which it was titled Podvig, and translated into English by the author, this time in collaboration with his son, Dmitri Nabokov.
Glory is the wryly ironic story of Martin Edelweiss, a twent-two-year-old Russian émigré of no account, who is in love with a girl who refuses to marry him. Convinced that his life is about to be wasted and hoping to impress his love, he decides to embark upon a "perilous, daredevil project"—an illegal attempt to reenter the Soviet Union, from which he and his mother had fled in 1919. He succeeds—but at a terrible cost.
