The Stories of Vladimir Nabokov
ISBN: 9780679729976 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 720 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. From the writer who shocked and delighted the world with his novels Lolita, Pale Fire,
and Ada, or Ardor, and so many others, comes a magnificent collection of stories. Written between the 1920s and 1950s, these sixty-five tales--eleven of which have been translated into English for the first time--display all the shades of Nabokov's imagination. They range from sprightly fables to bittersweet tales of loss, from claustrophobic exercises in horror to a connoisseur's samplings of the table of human folly. Read as a whole, The Stories of Vladimir Nabokov offers and... From the writer who shocked and delighted the world with his novels Lolita, Pale Fire,

Invitation to a Beheading
ISBN: 9780679725312 / Angielski / Miękka / 1989 / 223 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Like Kafka's The Castle, Invitation to a Beheading embodies a vision of a bizarre and irrational world. In an unnamed dream country, the young man Cincinnatus C. is condemned to death by beheading for "gnostical turpitude," an imaginary crime that defies definition. Cincinnatus spends his last days in an absurd jail, where he is visited by chimerical jailers, an executioner who masquerades as a fellow prisoner, and by his in-laws, who lug their furniture with them into his cell. When Cincinnatus is led out to be executed, he simply wills his executioners out of existence: they...

Promluv, paměti
ISBN: 9788076370654 / Czeski / 2020 / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. „Špatný autor životopisu retušuje svou minulost a výsledkem je fotografie, kterou pořídil cizí člověk, aby utěšil žal nad bolestnou ztrátou blízké osoby. Dobrý naopak dělá všechno, co je v jeho silách, aby zachoval podrobnosti s nejvyšší věrností. Tak charakterizuje memoárové psaní jeden z největších spisovatelů 20. století Vladimir Nabokov. Autobiografie, původně vydaná roku 1951 a zásadně přepracovaná o 15 let později, je nejen dokladem jeho slov, ale také výsostným uměleckým dílem. Zachycuje Nabokovův život v rozpětí let 1903 až 1940,...

Smích ve tmě
ISBN: 9788076374911 / Czeski / 2024 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. S nadsázkou lze říci, že Nabokov měl kromě literatury tři velké vášně - šachy, motýly a filmy. Román, v němž umělecký kritik Albert Albinus zatouží po sedmnáctileté adeptce herectví Margot a rozehraje s ní vztahovou partii plnou ochromující posedlosti, jako by byl poctou právě filmovému médiu. Ostatně první ruské vydání tohoto díla v roce 1932 neslo pojmenování Kamera obskura, tedy temná komora. Autor jej po šesti letech přeložil do angličtiny pod názvem Smích ve tmě, přičemž jeho slávu stvrdila i stejnojmenná filmová adaptace z roku 1969....

Ada, or Ardor: A Family Chronicle
ISBN: 9780679725220 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 624 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Published two weeks after his seventieth birthday, Ada, or Ardor is one of Nabokov's greatest masterpieces, the glorious culmination of his career as a novelist. It tells a love story troubled by incest. But more: it is also at once a fairy tale, epic, philosophical treatise on the nature of time, parody of the history of the novel, and erotic catalogue. Ada, or Ardor is no less than the supreme work of an imagination at white heat. This is the first American edition to include the extensive and ingeniously sardonic appendix by the author, written under the anagrammatic...

Własnym zdaniem
ISBN: 9788362858903 / Polski / Miękka / 2016 / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych. „Fikcja stwarza mi tak rzadko okazję do dzielenia się własnym zdaniem, że cieszą mnie te nagłe nawałnice pytań”, wyznaje Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977), rosyjsko-amerykański klasyk literatury XX wieku, i przedstawia nam, co „własnym zdaniem”, a nie zdaniem bohaterów jego powieści, ma do powiedzenia o świecie, a przede wszystkim o sobie. Wypowiada się w zebranych tu wywiadach, listach i artykułach rzucających sporo światła na niezwykłą osobowość tego pisarza. Rosyjski arystokrata pozbawiony przez rewolucję bolszewicką majątku i środków do życia, emigrant,...
