In 1918, Vladimir Nabokov with brothers and sisters posed for a photo. The case was happening in the Crimea, where young Nabokov fled from St. Petersburg. In this photo, they are still surrounding the aura of wealth and knowledge. Behind everyone stands a serious and beautiful young man, dressed in black. His gaze is directed directly to the camera. This is not at all Vladimir. This is Sergey Nabokov, born only by 11 months later. Its fate has developed quite differently. Vladimir Nabokov became one of the most significant writers of the 20th century, gained fame and achieved financial success. Sergey did not fall no fame or success. The fact of his existence hardly did not hide the family and, first of all, the famous brother. Nevertheless, Sergey"s life was no less wonderful. His story is the story of a vulnerable young man who draws to the brave to despair a man on the way to the tragic final. While the successful writer Nabokov conquered the American audience and caught butterflies, another Nabokov did his best to help his comrades on misfortune in the concentration camp under Hamburg. But before was a dreamy childhood, a poor youth and friendship with amazing people - with Jean Cokto and Gertood Stein, Sergey Dyagilev and Pablo Picasso
