In 'Speak, Memory', Vladimir Nabokov offers us a unique autobiography, where he describes in detail his first childhood sensations, his literary beginnings, and his first loves. The author transports us to his childhood in a noble and wealthy Russian family, and shares his passion for entomology, life in St. Petersburg, his foreign governesses, and the colors he associated with letters. In addition, the book recounts Nabokov's years of exile, including his time in Cambridge, the life of Russian exiles, and his experience in Hitler's Germany. An essential work to understand the life and thought of one of the great geniuses of 20th-century literature.
Vladimir Vladimirovich Nabokov, also known by the pen name Vladimir Sirin, was a Russian and American novelist, poet, translator, and entomologist.
