The Gift, Hardback Book

The Gift Hardback

Part of the The Penguin Vladimir Nabokov Hardback Collection series

Hardback

Description

The Gift is the phantasmal autobiography of Fyodor Godunov-Cherdynstev, a writer living in the closed world of Russian intellectuals in Berlin shortly after the First World War.

This gorgeous tapestry of literature and butterflies tells the story of Fyodor's pursuits as a writer.

Its heroine is not Fyodor's elusive and beloved Zina, however, but Russian prose and poetry themselves.
