Vladimir Vladimirovich Nabokov was born on April 23, 1899, in St. Petersburg, Russia. The Nabokov household was trilingual, and as a young man, he studied Slavic and romance languages at Trinity College, Cambridge, taking his honors degree in 1922. For the next eighteen years he lived in Berlin and Paris, writing prolifically in Russian under the pseudonym Sirin and supporting himself through translations, lessons in English and tennis, and by composing the first crossword puzzles in Russian. In 1925 he married Vera Slonim, with whom he had one child, a son, Dmitri. Having already fled Russia and Germany, Nabokov became a refugee once more in 1940, when he was forced to leave France for the United States. There he taught at Wellesley, Harvard, and Cornell. He also gave up writing in Russian and began composing ficticvbn ral books of criticism. Vladimir Nabokov died in Montreux, Switzerland, in 1977.
In Pale Fire Nabokov offers a cornucopia of deceptive pleasures: a 999-line poem by the reclusive genius John Shade; an adoring foreword and commentary by Shade's self-styled Boswell, Dr. Charles Kinbote; a darkly comic novel of suspense, literary idolatry and one-upmanship, and political intrigue.

讀瞭幾本納氏的書,《洛麗塔》、《普寜》...還不錯,但《自斬首之邀》開始,我就有一個個感覺,那就是老覺著納氏看著我們為他的作品頭痛而暗自偷笑——“你們費盡心思地想找尋些什麼?那隻是我丟棄的一團亂麻。”

老詩人留下遺稿,自認流亡給國王隱姓埋名作米國高校老師藉題發揮斷章取義抒發自己的各種亡國情懷。英雄體對偶式史詩部分流弊,解釋部分或者乾脆就整本微暗的火作者有點嘲諷的感覺(但是嘲諷誰呢?誰說誰承認。。)博學的作者啊文字優美但我還是覺得自己水平不太夠。。要看中文版補充一下。。

評分四星半。這是一部poetic novel,還是novelized poem?其實這一點不重要。非常可貴的一點是,納博科夫在這樣的作品中,對語言的揮發和現代性的探索,要比他汲汲追求的詩歌(傳統意義上的)更具價值意義。從這一點上,他要比作為“詩人”的喬伊斯看的通透。我相信於此他是有所自覺的。
評分Yes, Read Nabokov, you have to read the English.
