About This Novel

The poetic works of Nabokov, the great stylist of the 20th century, are presented for the first time in the Chinese world, with 90 representative poems covering a 59-year poetry journey. Like Joyce, Nabokov was first and foremost a poet. His obsession with writing poetry began in the summer when he was fifteen, and over the next ten years he wrote thousands of poems. When his first novel, Mary, was published in 1926, Nabokov became one of the great modernists who revolutionized the novel and imbued it with poetry. At the same time, he was still writing poetry, and although the volume was not as good as in his early days, his interest and personality more than made up for it. These poems share the same ideas and themes as his novels and complement each other. "The Collected Poems of Nabokov" contains nearly one hundred poems by Vladimir Nabokov, spanning his fifty-nine years of poetry creation, including Nabokov's earliest surviving work "Music", the long poem "The University Psalms" with a capacity comparable to a short story, and a new translation translated by his son Dmitry for the first time.
