Nabokov Vladimir

Lolita »Dopo trentasei anni, rileggo Lolita di Vladimir Nabokov... Trentasei anni sono moltissimi per un libro. Ma Lolita ha, come allora, un'abbagliante grandezza. Che respiro. Che forza romanzesca. Che potere verbale. Che scintillante alterigia. Che gioco sovrano. Come accade sempre ai grandi libri, Lolita si е spostato nel mio ricordo. Non mi его accorto che possedesse una cosi straordinaria suggestione mitica». Подробнее

Lolita Der vielumstrittene, längst zu Weltruhm gelangte und zweifach verfilmte Roman einer tragischen Pasion: Ein Vierzigjähriger verfällt dem grazilen Zauber einer kindlichen Nymphe und erfährt die Liebe als absolute Macht über Leben und Tod. Подробнее
Lolita Humbert Humbert — scholar, aesthete and romantic — has fallen completely and utterly in love with Lolita Haze, his landlady's gum-snapping, silky skinned twelve-year-old daughter. Reluctantly agreeing to marry Mrs Haze just to be close to Lolita, Humbert suffers greatly in the pursuit of romance; but when Lo herself starts looking for attention elsewhere, he will carry her off on a desperate cross-country misadventure, all in the name of Love. Hilarious, flamboyant, heart-breaking and full of ingenious word play, Lolita is an immaculate, unforgettable masterpiece of obsession, delusion and lust. Подробнее
Ada Or Ardor Written in mischievous and magically flowing prose, Ada or Ardor: A Family Chronicle — Nabokov's other great love story — offers even more sexual and imaginative surprises than Lolita. A romance that follows Ada from her first childhood meeting with Van on his uncle's country estate, in a 'dream-bright' America, through eighty years of rapture, Nabokov's 'longest, richest, most ambitious novel' also becomes, as Brian Boyd says, a great many other things: 'myth, fairy tale, utopian idyll, family chronicle, personal memoir, historical romance, erotic catalogue ... picture gallery and filmic folly'.

The Annotated Lolita When Lolita was first published in 1955 it created a sensation and established Nabokov as one of the most original prose writers of the twentieth century. This annotated edition, a revised and considerably expanded version of the 1970 edition, does full justice to the textual riches of Lolita, illuminating the elaborate verbal textures and showing how they contribute to the novel's overall meaning. Alfred Appel, Jr. also provides fresh observations on the novel's artifice, games and verbal patternings and a delightful biographical vignette of Nabokov. The annotations themselves were prepared in consultation with Nabokov while newly identified allusions were confirmed by him during the final years of his life. Подробнее
Lolita 'Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul.' Poet and pervert, Humbert Humbert becomes obsessed by twelve-year-old Lolita and seeks to possess her, first carnally and then artistically, out of love, 'to fix once for all the perilous magic of nymphets'. This seduction is one of many dimensions in Nabokov's dizzying masterpiece, which is suffused with a savage humour and rich, elaborate verbal textures. Подробнее
Отчаяние »Отчаяние» (1932, опубл. 1934) — шестой русский роман Владимира Набокова, в котором автор вновь — как прежде в «Короле, даме, валете» и «Камере обскуре» — обращается к немецкому материалу и криминальному сюжету. Берлинский коммерсант средней руки задумывает и совершает «идеальное убийство» с целью получить страховку, а затем пишет об этом повесть, перечитывая которую, с ужасом обнаруживает зафиксированный в ней роковой изъян своего хитроумного замысла... В рамках детективной истории о мнимом двойничестве и об «убийстве как разновидности изящных искусств» Набоков оригинально разыгрывает вечные литературные сюжеты о гении и злодействе, истинном и ложном таланте, преступлении и наказании, которые впоследствии будут развернуты в знаменитой «Лолите».
