Barrie Akin [ to JM's
inquiry about a set of quotation marks, in ADA:.‘We
must now find our bicycles,’ said Van, ‘we are lost "in another part of the
forest."’] Try Act III Scene V of "As You Like It" - stage
direction.
Jansy Mello: A good indication
for the source of the mysterious quote. Thank you.
Nabokov seldom cites female novelists and poets
so he probably wouldn't be referring to Lillian Hellman.
What other writer besides Jane Austen and
Agatha Christie did VN refer to in any of his
novels?
