In the footsteps of Nabokov

Brian Boyd is known to readers and literary critics around the world primarily as the author of the definitive two -volume biography of Nabokov “Vladimir Nabokov. Russian years ”and“ Vladimir Nabokov. American years
But prof. Boyd is not only a biographer. His work about Nabokov, his monographs about ADA and Pale Fire at one time brought the nabovets to a new level. The rich and complex phenomenon, the work of Nabokov, in Boyd’s books appears as a single system - a harmonious structure, where each part (ethics, epistemology, metaphysics, psychology, narrative, history of literature, artistic translation, poetry, chess, butterflies) harmoniously relate to the whole and the whole and the whole and This is due to this. The essays that compiled this collection - individual components of this design - allow you to look into the workshop of the most probably attentive reader of Nabokov
