Vladimir Nabokov’s final work to be published · 2008-04-28 19:13

Владимир Набоков, lib.aldebaran.ruThe son of late Lolita author Vladimir Nabokov has defended the decision to publish the novelist’s final work – against his father’s last wishes.

Dmitri Nabokov told the BBC the thought that no-one would ever read the manuscript was “very disturbing”.

The Original of Laura was incomplete when Nabokov died in 1977 and the author told his family to burn it.

For the last 30 years, the work has been the subject of much speculation in the literary world, with Dmitri offering occasional hints as to its quality.
