 | | Nabokov's vision of poetic heaven will be described later. | | | Nabokov is an "author" in the fullest sense of that term: he has authority. | | | Nabokov compares it to the "stab of wonder that accompanies the precise moment when, gazing at a tangle of twigs and leaves, one suddenly realized that what had seemed a natural component of that tangle is a marvelously disguised insect or bird." |

| | Despair by Vladimir Vladimirovich Nabokov (Paperback ) |
| | Nabokov is the stylistic master of modern English prose and his command of language in this novel, like all his works, is brilliant. | | | After all, Nabokov had written The Gift, Lolita and Pale Fire before revising this edition and the literary lessons learned from those novels are incorporated here. | | | Extensively revised by Nabokov in 1965--thirty years after its original publication-- Despair is the wickedly inventive and richly derisive story of Hermann, a man who undertakes the perfect crime--his own murder. |

| | King, Queen, Knave (Vintage International (Paperback)) by VLADIMIR NABOKOV - The Dark Spiral |
| | Comment: the attraction of this book is the sense of things to come with regards to the author's future books. | | | one adumbrates nabokov's penchant for condemning cruelty by having his characters indulge in it, that very cruelty, with inexcusable zest and relish; while the other gives us a taste of the author's wicked sense of humor. | | | whereas "mary", nabokov's first novel, emits a warm autobiographic glow, "king, queen, knave" does an about face to depict a world utterly distant and alien from the author's personal milieux. |

| | Amazon.com: Books: Nabokov's Butterflies: Unpublished and Uncollected Writings |
| | Readers whose love of Nabokov is anchored in his vivid imagery and sense of detail will find the new notes, letters, and snipits herein full of these same qualities. | | | Yes, this book is the perfect companion to Nabokov's Blues and the stories of Lepidoptera spun in Nabokov's own Speak, Memory and Strong Opinions. | | | Even those of us who cannot get enough of Nabokov and cannot praise him highly enough may find more than 700 densely-printed pages on the subject of butterflies a little much. |

| | { w a x w i n g } the vladimir nabokov appreciation site |
| | A collection of quotes from novels not written by Nabokov that mention Nabokovian themes and characters, and even the author himself. | | | Which doesn't come close to describing Nabokov's attention to sensuous detail, to the grand specifics, to the painstakingly devious characters inhabiting his stories, to the strange funhouse feel to the whole thing. | | | This is what I've been able to come up with. |
