Kritik
One of Choice's Outstanding Academic Titles for 1991 "Mr. Boyd has a remarkable gift for drawing life and literature together...[What he does] in this impressive biography reveals to us a Nabokov who has been far too little known... As a biography [Boyd's] book can hardly be surpassed. It is a definitive life of the man and a superbly documented chronicle of his time."--Sergei Davydov, The New York Times Book Review "A terrific biography: intelligent, compulsively readable, indispensable. Brian Boyd brings to his work a passionate scholarship comparable to that in Nabokov's own encyclopedic edition of Pushkin's Eugene Onegin. You just can't do better than that."--Michael Dirada, the Washington Post Book World "To the short list of outstanding literary biographies in our time there must now be added another remarkable achievement... Brian Boyd had a great story to tell, and he has told it superbly."--Hilton Kramer, The Wall Street Journal "Boyd has many qualities which mark him as Nabokov's natural biographer."--Jane Grayson, The Times Literary Supplementmehr
