The acclaimed author of Lolita offers unique insight into works by James Joyce, Franz Kafka, Jane Austen, and othersâwith an introduction by John Updike.
Â
In the 1940s, when Vladimir Nabokov first embarked on his academic career in the United States, he brought with him hundreds of original lectures on the authors he most admired. For two decades those lectures served as the basis for Nabokovâs teaching, first at Wellesley and then at Cornell, as he introduced undergraduates to the delights of great fiction.
Â
This volume collects Nabokovâs famous lectures on Western European literature, with analysis and commentary on Charles Dickensâs Bleak House, Gustav Flaubertâs Madam Bovary, Marcel Proustâs The Walk by Swannâs Place, Robert Louis Stevensonâs âThe Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde,â and other works. This volume also includes photographic reproductions of Nabokovâs original notes, revealing his own edits, underlined passages, and more.
