The Stories of Vladimir Nabokov

These 65 stories, drawn from Nabokov's four earlier collections and including eleven never before translated into English, display the astonishing range of his technical and formal inventiveness. The stories span the years from the early 1920s--the years of his exile from Russia--to the mid-1950s, when he abandoned the story form and turned to his English-language masterpieces LOLITA, PALE FIRE, and ADA. Edited by his son and translator, Dmitri Nabokov. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
