Publisher : Here, for the first time, the stories of one of the century’s greatest prose stylists are collected in a single, comprehensive volume. Written from the early 1920s – the years of his exile from Russia – to the mid-1950s, when he abandoned the story form and turned to his English-language masterpieces Lolita, Pale Fire, and Ada, these stories reveal the fascinating progress of Nabokov’s early development as they remind us that we are in the presence of a magnificent original, a genuine master. Edited by his son and translator, Dmitri Nabokov, The Stories of Vladimir Nabokov is a literary event and a celebration of his art.
