And the new book, addressed to youth, just contains poems and stories that attribute us to his childhood in the St. Petersburg province, his youth, who came to emigration in pre -war Europe ... The childhood of the Nobel nominee Vladimir Nabokov is associated with the environs of St. Petersburg, he held it in The suburban estate expressed (near Gatchina), in the estate "Evas the Cat", in Batovo and Christmas.
The book includes stories from the collections "Return of Chorba", "Swearing", "Spring in Fialt", verses dedicated to the memories of childhood and youth, the native city, Russian poets and writers.
"For Nabokov, childhood was a lost paradise: at twelve years he leaves with his family from his own country, and now he is forced to rebuild his life. In Russia, the Nabokovs were rich, and in exile Vladimir Vladimirovich had to earn a living for himself: the lessons of French and English, and at the same time, and tennis and boxing. Once he had tutors - now he himself was hired for a short while a tutor in rich families.
The book connects the texts of very different times, different genres, different stylistics. But together they form a peculiar pattern. We go with the writer in his life, from the Lost Paradise - to the Paradise acquired. And we may feel, trace how this paradise gains its outlines. This unity helps us to feel the drawings of wonderful artists Alexander and Valery Trown. " Valery Shubinsky
