Summary
Vladimir Nabokov: Talk, memory!
Autobiography revisited
Talk, memory! presents Nabokov's autobiographical memoirs, which cover 37 years of the European period of the author's life, until his departure to America with his wife and son at the dawn of World War II. A factual, chronological account of his life could not even be expected from a writer like Nabokov; he almost lyrically narrates his memories, the formation of his literary identity, his passion for lepidoptery which appeared in his early childhood, pubertal love and marriage with Vera, Bolshevik terror, life in emigration, longing for his lost homeland. This brilliant mosaic of memories consists of fifteen chapters that were published separately in the period from 1948 to 1950, first collected and published in 1951, and revised, supplemented and reissued in 1966. In this book, lovers of Nabokov's prose can find everything that normally characterizes Nabokov's prose. his novels and what deservedly included him among the greatest writers of the 20th century: captivating descriptions, sharp parody, intelligent and provocative humor (often at the expense of the psychoanalysts he hated so much), frequent wordplay, complex sentences and, above all, an impeccable style.
