    Extractions: Nabokov had almost burned his manuscript of Lolita in frustration eight years earlier, but when the first American edition finally came out in 1958, it sold out. In days it was into a 3rd printing, in a month it was a #1 best-seller, and by the time Nabokov was on the cover of Newsweek in 1962 about the only one who hadn't read the book was Groucho Marx, who quipped, "I plan to put off reading Lolita for six years until she's eighteen."

45. Vladimir Nabokov Biography
    This article is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia article vladimir nabokov.  
    http://www.biographybase.com/biography/Nabokov_Vladimir.html
    
    Extractions: After emigration from Russia in 1919, the family settled briefly in England and Vladimir enrolled in Cambridge for his studies of French and Russian literature. In 1923, he graduated from Cambridge and relocated to Berlin, where he gained some reputation within the colony of Russian émigrés as a poet. He married Vera Slonim in Berlin in 1925, with whom he had a son, Dmitri, born in 1934. His date of birth was April 10, 1899, by the Julian calendar. The Gregorian equivalent was then April 22, but it changed to April 23 in 1900, while Russia did not adopt the Gregorian calendar until 1918. Accordingly, his date of birth may correctly be considered as April 22, as some sources show, but April 23 is the birthday that he actually observed. His first writings were in the Russian language, but he came to his greatest distinction in the English language. For this achievement, he has been compared with Joseph Conrad; yet some view this as a dubious comparison, as Conrad only composed in English, never in his native Polish. Nabokov translated many of his early works into English, sometimes in cooperation with his son Dmitri Nabokov. His trilingual upbringing (English, Russian and French) had a profound influence on his artistry.

    Extractions: ABOUT US ARCHIVES LINKS RSS ... MONDAY COLUMNS An Eclectic Digest of Science, Art and Literature Main Abbas Raza is filling in for J.M. Tyree, who is on vacation this week. As in the case of many sciency types, my mostly informal education in the humanities has been somewhat arbitrary and certainly very spotty. I can reliably amuse and horrify more erudite friends by reciting lists of authors and books I've never read. Fortunately, Nabokov is not on those lists. I say fortunately, and I mean it literally: in 1986 I was in Buffalo, New York, spending a few nights in the hospital with my mother who was having a back operation, and I needed something to read. Wandering into a nearby bookstore, I was looking for something by Naipaul in the alphabetically arranged fiction section when, purely by luck, I came upon Lolita . The name triggered only a vague memory of something salaciously exciting, and I picked it up. Thus began an obsession with Nabokov that reached its acme when (at the invitation of my dear friend and mentor Laura Claridge ) I taught Lolita to the midshipmen (and women) at the United States Naval Academy a couple of years later. (This picture shows the paperback copy of the book I had bought that day, and not wanting to sully my lapel with adhesive, had affixed the hospital visitors' sticker to its cover instead.)

    Extractions: Oliver Sacks has told me how fascinated he was to learn that as a seven-year-old in the throes of fever Vladimir Nabokov lost his skills as a mathematical prodigy, and found on his recovery that butterflies seemed to have recolonized some of the mental terrain he had formerly dedicated to his concern for, for instance, the seventeenth root of 3529471145760-275132301897342055866171392. paranoia, calling out the names of such shapes and substances as he had learned to identify by touch, or thought he recognized through the awfulness of stories about them (falling trees, extinct saurians) and which now pressed on him from all sides, alternating with periods of stupor, followed invariably by a return to his normal self, when for a week or two he would finger his blind books or listen, in red-lidded bliss, to records of music, bird songs, and Irish poetry.

    Extractions: If Nabokov was, as he often claimed, a God in his fictional universes, and his loyal readers were, as he sometimes called them, little Nabokovs, then the posthumous Nabokov has produced a very jealous bunch of little Gods. How they hate one another! The poststructuralists sneer at the befuddled early reviewers; his second biographer takes every possible opportunity to denigrate his first; the Nabokov Estate wages a campaign of intellectual terror against all would-be heretics; and everyone seems to loathe Edmund Wilson. Nabokov has many admirers, the admiring Martin Amis once grumbled, but they are "the wrong kind of admirers." It's true. Personally, I have a problem with the French. You know who I meanthe aesthetes, the punsters, the turtlenecked acolytes of reading-as-wanking and literature as play. Nabokov is their favorite writer, the convenient novelistic illustration of their theoretical axioms. For all the swipes he took at the various hermeneutic rackets of the American academy Pale Fire

    of the book vladimir nabokov The Russian Years by Boyd, B., published by Princeton University Press.  
    http://press.princeton.edu/titles/4633.html
    
    Extractions: In the course of his ten years' work on the biography, Boyd traveled along Nabokov's trail everywhere from Yalta to Palo Alto. The only scholar to have had free access to the Nabokov archives in Montreux and the Library of Congress, he also interviewed at length Nabokov's family and scores of his friends and associates. For the general reader, Boyd offers an introduction to Nabokov the man, his works, and his world. For the specialist, he provides a basis for all future research on Nabokov's life and art, as he dates and describes the composition of all Nabokov's works, published and unpublished. Boyd investigates Nabokov's relation to and his independence from his time, examines the special structures of his mind and thought, and explains the relations between his philosophy and his innovations of literary strategy and style. At the same time he provides succinct introductions to all the fiction, dramas, memoirs, and major verse; presents detailed analyses of the major books that break new ground for the scholar, while providing easy paths into the works for other readers; and shows the relationship between Nabokov's life and the themes and subjects of his art. Reviews: "Mr. Boyd has a remarkable gift for drawing life and literature together. . . .[What he does] in this impressive biography reveals to us a Nabokov who has been far too little known. . . . As a biography [Boyd's] book can hardly be surpassed. It is a definitive life of the man and a superbly documented chronicle of his time."Sergei Davydov

    http://www.onthemedia.org/transcripts/transcripts_050704_lolita.html
    
    Extractions: BROOKE GLADSTONE: In 1916, an 18 page short story titled Lolita about an older man obsessed with a young girl, was published in a German short story collection. The author was Heinz Von Litchberg. In 1958, Vladimir Nabokov's 300-page novel Lolita, also about an older man obsessed with a young girl, was published in the United States. Was Nabokov a plagiarist, or as New York Observer columnist Ron Rosenbaum posed in a recent column, did Nabokov suffer from cryptomnesia? RON ROSENBAUM: Well, I didn't invent the term "cryptomnesia" to apply to this particular case. It was a German professor, Michael Mahr, who was the one who actually discovered this 1916 story. And cryptomnesia is sort of one of four possible ways to explain what Nabokov did, and the European press and a lot of Nabokovians are all in a tizzy because it's been played up as plagiarism. But it could be entirely coincident. Nabokov never read this story, although Professor Mahr seems to have research that shows that Nabokov, in his exile from Russia, lived in the same section of Berlin as the German writer who wrote the Ur Lolita the 1916 Lolita
