- W612701867 abstract "Shortly before Vladimir Nabokov died in 1977, he left instructions that draft for his last novel, The Original of Laura, be destroyed. But in 2008 Dmitri Nabokov, writer's only child and sole surviving heir, contravened his father's wishes. Formed from novelistic fragments that had been hidden from public eye for three decades, The Original of Laura is a construction based on conjecture of Nabokov estate, publishers, and scholars. Shades of Laura returns to scene of crime, elucidating process of publishing Nabokov's unfinished novel from its conception - reproduction of 138 handwritten index cards - to simultaneous publication of translations of final text in several languages. The essays in this collection investigate event of publication and reconstitute book's critical reception, reproducing a selection of some of most salient reviews. Critics condemned Dmitri's choice, but as contributors to this volume attest, there are many more shades and nuances to his decision. The book also endeavours to allow readers to understand and evaluate an incomplete novel; contributors analyze its plot, structure, imagery, and motifs. Published after prolonged public debate, Vladimir Nabokov's The Original of Laura was dubbed the most eagerly awaited literary novel of this fledgling century. Covering publication from a broad spectrum of perspectives, this collection reassesses Nabokov canon and roots of his literary prestige. Contributors include Paul Ardoin (Florida State University), Gennady Barabtarlo (University of Missouri), Brian Boyd (University of Auckland), Marijeta Bozovic (Colgate University), Maurice Couturier (University of Nice), Lara Delage-Toriel (Strasbourg University), Galya Diment (University of Washington), Leland de la Durantaye (Claremont McKenna College), Michael Juliar (Private collector), Eric Naiman (University of California, Berkeley), Ellen Pifer (University of Delaware), Anna Raffetto (Adelphi Publishing House, Milan), Michael Rodgers (University of Strathclyde), Rien Verhoef (Leiden University), Olga Voronina (Bard College), Tadashi Wakashima (Kyoto University), Michael Wood (Princeton University), and Barbara Wyllie (Slavonic and East European Review)." @default.
