Rezension

“A wide-ranging set of essays that both sharpen the focus and broaden the field, to include issues of ethics, aesthetics and metaphysics, as well as comparative studies that reveal the extent of Nabokov’s engagement with formative developments in Russian and European literature and thought.” (Barbara Wyllie, Slavonic and East European Review SEER, Vol. 97 (2), April, 2019)




“Nabokov and the Question of Morality … assembles some of the best recent thought on it. … The volume should be required reading for any scholar seeking insight into the virtuoso … .” (Thomas Seifrid, Slavic and East European Journal, Vol. 61 (3), 2017)
