弗拉基米尔·纳博科夫(1899-1977)是二十世纪公认的杰出小说家和文体家。作为移民作家,他将欧洲贵族趣味与传统修养带进美国文化,又持有深刻而世故的批判与讽刺眼光,这使得他的作品具有特殊的文化品味。擅长反讽、怀旧与滑稽模仿技法;同时又注重语言的锤炼,他以广博学识和文学修养形成令英美本土作家赞叹的英文风格。
一八九九年四月二十三日,纳博科夫出生于圣彼得堡。布尔什维克革命期间,纳博科夫随全家于一九一九年流亡德国。他在剑桥三一学院攻读法国和俄罗斯文学后,开始了在柏林和巴黎十八年的文学生涯。一九四〇年,纳博科夫移居美国,在威尔斯理、斯坦福、康奈尔和哈佛大学执教,以小说家、诗人、批评家和翻译家身份享誉文坛,著有《庶出的标志》、《洛丽塔》、《普宁》和《微暗的火》等长篇小说。一九五五年九月十五日,纳博科夫最有名的作品《洛丽塔》由巴黎奥林匹亚出版社出版并引发争议。一九六一年,纳博科夫迁居瑞士蒙特勒;一九七七年七月二日在洛桑病逝。

为什么他的书每一本的翻译质量都那么差?最先读的是《洛丽塔》,可读性极差。再是《透明》,也是那种看着看着能睡着的书。可读的时候你又明明能强烈地感觉到,作者在表达一些译者文字所远远不能触及的东西。一开始我还以为是俄语和汉语之间的翻译有很大难度的关系,读了《说吧...
评分看到《文汇读书周报》上热烈地推荐纳博科夫的《说吧,记忆》,也马上买了一本上海译文出版社出版的这本书,回来一看,真的有些失望!那位王家湘教授的翻译水平真的不敢恭维,译文读起来疙疙瘩瘩,不仅谈不上有什么优美可以享受,就连基本的顺畅都谈不上,一看就是把原文的那些...
评分I have been recently reading Nabokov's autobiography Speak, Memory. It is exceptionally exquisite and elegant, as the prestigious author's other works, if not more so. I read the Chinese translation first just for relaxing during the final season. The overw...

评分假设,你到了人生旅途的终点,在那传说里电光火石的一瞬,漫长的一生以高度浓缩的方式铺展在你的眼前,一分钟就是百年。在那样的时刻,我想我们终将明白,蜕去物质的空壳,人所拥有的,唯有回忆而已。它们像焰火,虽然注定要归于寂灭,但是在意识的夜景上,它喷薄而出的那一刻...

From one of the 20th century's great writers comes one of the finest autobiographies of our time. Speak, Memory was first published by Vladimir Nabokov in 1951 as Conclusive Evidence and then assiduously revised and republished in 1966. The Everyman's Library edition includes, for the first time, the previously unpublished "Chapter 16"--the most significant unpublished piece of writing by the master, newly released by the Nabokov estate--which provided an extraordinary insight into Speak, Memory . Nabokov's memoir is a moving account of a loving, civilized family, of adolescent awakenings, flight from Bolshevik terror, education in England, and émigré life in Paris and Berlin. The Nabokovs were eccentric, liberal aristocrats, who lived a life immersed in politics and literature on splendid country estates until their world was swept away by the Russian revolution when the author was eighteen years old. Speak, Memory vividly evokes a vanished past in the inimitable prose of Nabokov at his best.
