Dear Nabokovians,
I'm currently in the middle of investigating the digital transmission history of PF and have discovered that the UK Penguin Kindle and iBooks editions of the text do not feature the Index, yet another example of an erroneous decision to remove part of the fiction in Nabokov's works (c.f. the replacement of John Ray Jr.'s foreword with one from Martin Amis). This is most likely based on the 2011 Penguin 9th printing by the text. I don't have a copy of that printing, does it also contain the error? Could anyone who has an e-book version of PF aside from the the UK iBook and UK Kindle versions let me know if their copy contains the index with the name of the publisher and the device/app the e-book can be read with at simon.rowberry@winchester.ac.uk?

 Many thanks,
Simon
