Don't forget Biarritz on the Nabtrail... a very nice sea resort (my home
town) on the Atlantic coast (the South Western tip of France, The Basque
Country, on the border with Spain) where Nabokov built sand castles with
Colette/Claude Desprès... Re-read Glory for more on Biarritz, or contact me
if you need tourist information!
