Vladimir Nabokov

Die Gabe.

The Gift

The most beautiful moments in books are those of recounted childhoods by exceptionally talented authors. Otherwise

RIP my brain. I am ignorant in these references, feeling like so much was lost on me. Incredibly dense and special book, a tough read.

The Gift is the last of the novels Nabokov wrote in his native Russian and the crowning achievement of that period in his literary career. It is also his ode to Russian literature, evoking the works of Pushkin, Gogol, and others in the course of its narrative: the story of Fyodor Godunov-Cherdyntsev, an impoverished émigré poet living in Berlin, who dreams of the book he will someday write--a book very much like The Gift itself.
