Nabokov Noir
«
Luke Parker's book is a rich offering that adds a great deal of texture to what we thought we knew about Nabokov's activities in the 1920s and 1930s. The book is part biography and part cultural history, looking closely at the world of Russian émigré life, mainly in Berlin during the decades in question.
