Vladimir and Vera Nabokov lived together for over fifty years - in the literary world this is an amazing example of a happy marriage. They rarely separated for long, and yet their archive contains more than three hundred letters and notes from Nabokov, from 1923 to 1975. One of the best writers of the twentieth century, the brilliant, ironic and demanding Nabokov appears in this book as a gentle and caring husband. “...You and I are very special; No one knows such miracles as we know, and no one loves them as much as we do,” he wrote in 1924. Vera Evseevna was his first reader, his typist and secretary, and after the writer’s death she translated his English works and protected his extensive legacy.
The letters collected in this edition paint a detailed portrait of the young Nabokov: his immediate circle and acquaintances, literary plans and reading circle, his leisure time, everyday habits, memories of Russia and Cambridge, plans for the future, etc. Letters from later years remain unchanged his love and admiration for his wife, who shared with him both difficult trials and worldwide fame.
