I have more sightings of VN to offer the Nabokv-L. I came across several references to Nabokov in a Brazilian author that has been very much on the best-sellers list with his short-stories and humoristic criticism of our government and mores. I´ve
found three references until now, but I haven´t yet read all his short
essays...
Luis Fernando Veríssimo in Banquete com os deuses ( Cinema, literatura,
música e outras artes). Ed. Objetiva, Rio de Janeiro, 2003. The cover-leaf
observes that: " Truffaut, Fallini, Chaplin, Nabokov, Borges, Miles Davis,
Chet Baker - they are all here in this book in which Veríssimo celebrates
his great passions and turns the reader into a special guest".
Luis Fernando Veríssimo: A Banquet ( Symposium?) with the gods ( cinema,
literature, music and other arts )
