Nabokov manuscript to be published
April 23, 2008 | 12:03 PM | By Derek Weiler

It looks like Vladimir Nabokov’s son Dmitri has resolved his dilemma about what to do with a fragmentary manuscript his late father left behind. (Quick recap: Vladimir wanted it destroyed, but Dmitri felt it was too worthy to consign to oblivion.) After some much-publicized soul-searching, Dmitri has indeed decided to allow “The Original of Laura” to be published. At least, that’s what he told German magazine Der Spiegel, in an interview summarized on the Guardian website. Doubtless many will condemn the younger Nabokov for failing to respect his father’s wishes, but Quillblog will not judge.
