Letters to Vera
Section: Thought and Philosophy
Number of pages: 452 pages
It is not just an anthology book that includes between its covers letters from a husband to his wife, but rather it is the story of departure and what went with the wind - the journey of the bitter years of the great writer Nabokov (author of the novel Lolita) with his prestigious position in three different world literatures: English, French and Russian. This book is an odyssey that flows through letters whose covers were publicly unsealed and revealed to all, it is the journey of a lifetime, through papers that Nabokov would never have imagined that his son would one day publish the secrets of his life. The book includes 287 letters, written from 1923 to 1976, to tell the story of his fine art and octopus-like relationships. It is a biography written from heart to heart, and remained in safe custody, untouched by hands and unseen by eyes. It is a great book that will change common concepts about Nabokov, the writers he met, and his religious or political positions.
