The Real Life of Sebastian Knight is one of Vladimir Nabokov's most
autobiographical novels and it has often been observed that
Sebastian's passionate affair with the femme fatale Nina Rechnoy is
a dramatized extension of Nabokov's infatuation with Irina
Guadanini. In this book it is shown that the novel also conceals
another, secluded, love affair Sebastian had with a man, which
reflects the main episode in the life of Nabokov's brother Sergey.
By pursuing many biographical and literary references and
allusions, and by disregarding the deceptive guiding by the
narrator (Sebastian's half-brother), this moving story about
Sebastian's silent love becomes brightly visible.
