Overview

Vladimir i Vera Nabokovy prozhili vmeste svyshe pyatidesyati let — v literaturnom mire eto udivitelnyy primer schastlivogo braka. Oni redko rasstavalis nadolgo, i vse zhe v ih arhive sohranilos bolee trehsot pisem i zapisok Nabokova, s 1923 po 1975 god. Odin iz luchshih pisateley HH veka, blestyaschiy, ironichnyy i vzyskatelnyy Nabokov predstaet v etoy knige nezhnym i zabotlivym muzhem. «…My s toboy sovsem osobennye; takih chudes, kakie znaem my, nikto ne znaet, i nikto tak ne lyubit, kak my», — pisal on v 1924 godu. Vera Evseevna byla ego pervym chitatelem, ego mashinistkoy i sekretarem, a posle smerti pisatelya perevodila ego angliyskie proizvedeniya i oberegala ego obshirnoe nasledie. Sobrannye v nastoyaschem izdanii pisma risuyut detalnyy portret molodogo Nabokova: ego blizhayshee okruzhenie i znakomstva, literaturnye zamysly i krug chteniya, ego dosug, bytovye privychki, vospominaniya o Rossii i Kembridzhe, plany na buduschee i t. d. V pismah bolee pozdnih let neizmennymi ostayutsya ego lyubov i voshischenie zhenoy, razdelivshey s nim i nelegkie ispytaniya, i vsemirnuyu slavu.

About the Author

Born in Russia, Vladimir Nabokov (1899-1977) had a penchant for writing about the tragic and the taboo in his books, especially the still-controversial Lolita. In 1919, his family left Russia for Western Europe, and eventually settled in the United States. Although his first works were written in Russian, he became famous for his novels like Pale Fire that he wrote in English. Nabokov's erudite, inventive approach to writing — buttressed by his formidable academic and cultural intellect — made him a literary legend.
