EDNOTE. My thanks to all who notified me of the message from "Michael Korovkin." I suspect that Tina Colquhoun's suspicions (below) are correct. Oddly, neither NABOKV-L nor I have gotten Mr. Korovkin's message. Nor have I opened relayed copies.
The whole affair seems rather like a Nabokovian novel with a demented "unreliable narrator." Unfortunately, M.Livri is real and quite possibly dangerous.

I've just received some strange e-mail from someone called Michael Korovkin entitled 'Nabokov - sladerer!' - whatever this means. It has two links to various Livry-connected articles/sites.



I assume this is simply Loony Livry up to his rumoured tricks. Have Nabokovians really started suing him? Should he not instead be committed? He seems to be a very sad individual.
