The chronological order allows us to watch the Cambridge student and the fledgling Berlin reviewer and poet turn into the acclaimed Paris émigré novelist whose stature brought him to teach in America, where his international success exploded with \u003ci\u003eLolita\u003c\/i\u003e and propelled him back to Europe. Whether his subject is Proust or Pushkin, the sport of boxing or the privileges of democracy, Nabokov's supreme individuality, his keen wit, and his alertness to the details of life illuminate the page.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Vladimir Nabokov Literary Trust, Brian Boyd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1101873701\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781101873700\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Vintage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/09\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 576\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 1.20d","brand":"Vladimir Nabokov Literary Trust","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44044945228031,"sku":"9781101873700","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2c5184f2-2cb4-49ca-9cc4-84b6114d5eb0.jpg?v=1684975839","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/think-write-speak-vladimir-nabokov-literary-trust-9781101873700","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
