ISBN: 9788362858750 / Polski / Miękka / 2015 / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych. Rosyjsko-amerykański geniusz literatury Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977), autor słynnej "Lolity", był też akademikiem. Zebrane tu wykłady wygłoszone na Harvardzie z początkiem lat 50. XX wieku dalekie są jednak od akademizmu.

Nabokov, którego błyskotliwy umysł i poczucie humoru łagodzi nam udręki lektury dzieła...

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....

No marriage of a major twentieth-century writer is quite as beguiling as that of Vladimir Nabokov's to Vera Slonim.

From their first encounter in 1923, Vladimir's letters to Vera chronicle a half-century-long love story, one that is playful, romantic, and memorable. At the same time, the letters reveal much about their author. We see the infectious fascination with which Vladimir observed everything--animals,...
