In Pale Fire Nabokov offers a cornucopia of deceptive pleasures: a 999-line poem by the reclusive genius John Shade; an adoring foreword and commentary by Shade's self-styled Boswell, Dr. Charles Kinbote; a darkly comic novel of suspense, literary idolatry and one-upmanship, and political intrigue.
Vladimir Vladimirovich Nabokov was born on April 23, 1899, in St. Petersburg, Russia. The Nabokov household was trilingual, and as a young man, he studied Slavic and romance languages at Trinity College, Cambridge, taking his honors degree in 1922. For the next eighteen years he lived in Berlin and Paris, writing prolifically in Russian under the pseudonym Sirin and supporting himself through translations, lessons in English and tennis, and by composing the first crossword puzzles in Russian. In 1925 he married Vera Slonim, with whom he had one child, a son, Dmitri. Having already fled Russia and Germany, Nabokov became a refugee once more in 1940, when he was forced to leave France for the United States. There he taught at Wellesley, Harvard, and Cornell. He also gave up writing in Russian and began composing ficticvbn ral books of criticism. Vladimir Nabokov died in Montreux, Switzerland, in 1977.
(参见172行注释) 这样的括号内容让自己忍不住笑了一下,只是引用一下谢德的一句话(p171)。 为什么我能读进去?经常怀疑自己对晦涩的的作品的阅读欣赏,到底是否“读懂”了。什么叫做“读懂”?这个词也许本身也没什么意义。在这样的懵懂中,我却愿意说,很好看,也值得看。...
评分你第一次读这本书的时候,像是走在意大利贵族摆满陈列品的走廊:每处来自文学和艺术的引用,你想起它们的context,读出它们的隐喻;每一种植物,每一种鸟,每一种蝴蝶,你记得它们的生境和样貌;Zemblan的每一个单词,你听出它们来自哪个语言的什么词汇,你怀念北国的乡音;那...
评分在看完纳博科夫的《微暗的火》之后,我捶胸顿足:不是后悔自己没有早早下手写出一本《微暗的火》来,而是对我国古代的大诗人屈原感到气愤和委屈,如果他不是写完《离骚》之后就迅速投江,而是慢慢在那首诗之后细细做些注解,然后里面再加些宫庭逸事,逃亡经历什么的,那么,我...

评分是你在读一部小说,还是在写一部小说?《微暗的火》抛出这样一个问题,作为读者的我们不得不接过这猛地抛来的橄榄球。 读完之后发现《微暗的火》并非一个不易通读下来的作品,它行文简单,而且在字里行间似乎都给予了读者一定程度的暗示。所以读者很容易就会在一...
說實話讀完了又咂摸了一下,還是覺得沒怎麼讀懂
评分读到3/4稍微有点倦了,最后一条注释倒还真的暴击。I was the shadow of the waxwing slain By the false azure in the windowpane. Nabokov的形式玩得还是出神入化了!极喜这个英文的风格,1/3本过去不见他那个动辄五六行从句套从句的句式看着都不习惯了。
评分纳博科夫给我的启示就是,minor literature作者风格不见得就比母语作者的差。用另外一种语言反而是一种解域,是一台向语言注入生命力的机器。
评分Nabokov could arouse my intellectual awe but no poetic passion. A masterful player of words and an intentional architect of verses, but narcissistic and haughty to the core. The quintessential courthouse scholar who's too removed from the juices and dirt of life to rank among the great novelists or bards. He flew the revolution!
评分meta阅读的祖师爷吧……长诗和注释构筑起迷宫一般的阅读体验,和并不“可靠”的主叙述人以及多重时间线一起形成目眩神迷的文字/逻辑游戏,然而本质却又渗透着纳博科夫本人的经验与思考,一出最不像自传的自传。很服气了(拜倒
