Journal Entry 1 by anathema-device from Wien Bezirk 20 - Brigittenau, Wien Austria on Tuesday, July 12, 2011
****Permanent Collection****
I got this last year, just after I'd moved to Graz and allowed myself to start buying books again. Then lots of other things happened, and I didn't read it until last month or so. I'm glad I finally found time for this, since it is an amazing book. Most of all (as usual with Nabokov) I love the language (and the poem), but it's also a very ironic, sadly funny book that has to be read slowly to be appreciated.
