Über diesen Titel

From one of the 20th century's great writers comes one of the finest autobiographies of our time. Speak, Memory, first published in 1951 as Conclusive Evidence and then assiduously revised in 1966, is an elegant and rich evocation of Nabokov’s life and times, even as it offers incisive insights into his major works, including Lolita, Pnin, Despair, The Gift, The Real Life of Sebastian Knight, and The Luhzin Defense.

One of the 20th century’s master prose stylists, Vladimir Nabokov was born in St. Petersburg in 1899. He studied French and Russian literature at Trinity College, Cambridge, then lived in Berlin and Paris, where he launched a brilliant literary career. In 1940 he moved to the United States, and achieved renown as a novelist, poet, critic, and translator. He taught literature at Wellesley, Stanford, Cornell, and Harvard. In 1961 he moved to Montreux, Switzerland, where he died in 1977.

"Beguiling and superbly produced, this bittersweet rendition will appeal to lovers of Nabokov and those experiencing their first taste." (AudioFile)

Every sentence, every turn of events, it is a great book on many levels.
The pronunciation of French could have been better, but everything could be understood.

Great Story Perfectly Written

Speak, Memory is a legendary feet of intellectual inquiry. It is not a fun book but a very wise book. However, I cannot recommend this reading, because the reader is very bad. He sounds obnoxious, has no Esprit or charisma, and doesn’t fit Nabokov‘s writing voice at all.
