Speak, Memory: An Autobiography Revisited by Vladimir Nabokov, ISBN 9780141183220

Publisher Description:
'Speak, memory' said Vladimir Nabokov. And immediately there came flooding back to him a host of enchanting recollections - of his comfortable childhood and adolescence, of his rich, liberal-minded father, his beautiful mother, an army of relations and family hangers - on and of grand old houses in St Petersburg and the surrounding countryside in pre-Revolutionary Russia. Young love, butterflies, tutors and a multitude of other theme thread together to weave an autobiography, which is itself, a work of art.
