This line, from Vladimir Nabokov's novel 𝘈𝘥𝘢 𝘰𝘳 𝘈𝘳𝘥𝘰𝘳: 𝘈 𝘍𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘺 𝘊𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘭𝘦, in a passage describing Ada’s outdoor 16th birthday party, held on a hot summer day, contains the anagram ‘picnic site had Ada’.

Needed something a little upbeat, today!

Our blue shadows are enormous!
We move in a gigantic, joyful world!”

Gelezen: Vladimir Nabokov, Invitation to a beheading
Er zijn meer klassiekers dan je ooit gelezen krijgt, maar dat hoeft je niet te weerhouden. #Nabokov is een stilistische grootmeester, ook in dit vervreemdende werk. Ik moest af en toe denken aan Koestlers […]

We always know. Deep down. 🕯️

We know the narrator is lying to us, and yet—we keep reading. Why?

From luxury ‘dupes’ to literary doubles: why doppelgangers are everywhere right now AI ‘twins’, Mar-a-Lago lookalikes, Melania impersonator conspiracies … doubles proliferate in today’s culture – and nowhere more so than in a series of unsettling new novels that draw on a rich gothic tradition to tap into our paranoid times

“… after all, there was but one sky (white, with minute multicolored optical sparks),”

Vladimir Nabokov, 𝘈𝘥𝘢

An enigmatic description of the sky from Nabokov's 𝘈𝘥𝘢.

I don't understand why I find it compelling and, somehow, true, as if the universe is a radiant white void.

Unfortunately, when you add her love of Epstein's buddy Noam Chomsky to the equation, it gets much, much, much darker.

I finished Nabokov's "Pnin" last night.

What a delight it was!

I would recommend getting hold of the Everyman's Library edition, as the introduction by David Lodge id both informative and perceptive.

It's been awhile since I've enjoyed a #book as much as this one, Alex Beam's The Feud: Vladimir #Nabokov, Edmund Wilson, and the End of a Beautiful Friendship - although it might have been titled "The Feud: Nabokov vs. Everyone." It focuses especially on Nabokov's massive translation of Pushkin.

When interviewed in The Paris Review in 1967, #Nabokov said, when discussing #Lolita : “Humbert Humbert is a vain and cruel wretch”

One wonders if #Epstein saw himself thusly when scrawling quotes from the masterpiece across bodies of his victims.
