"Mashenka" is the first and largely autobiographical novel written by Vladimir Nabokov in Berlin and dedicated to the writer's Russian past.

The young emigrant Lev Ganin in a German boarding school relives the story of his first love, cut short by the revolution. The power of his creative memory allows him to overcome the physical separation from Mashenka (whose prototype was Nabokov's beloved Valentina Shulgina), the pictures of pre-revolutionary Russia recreated by his imagination turn out to be more significant and brighter than the surrounding scenery of the present.
