GUARDIAN BOOKS OF THE YEAR 2014 No marriage of a major
twentieth-century writer lasted longer than Vladimir Nabokov's.
Vera Slonim shared his delight at the enchantment of life's trifles
and literature's treasures, and he rated her as having the best and
quickest sense of humour of any woman he had met. From their
meeting in 1921, Vladimir's letters to his beloved Vera form a
narrative arc that tells a forty-six year-long love story, and they
are memorable in their entirety. Almost always playful, romantic,
and pithy, the letters tell us much about the man and the writer;
we see that Vladimir observed everything, from animals, faces,
speech, and landscapes with genuine fascination.
