Selected Poems by Vladimir Nabokov

A compact collection of luminous lyrics that move between nostalgic Russian reminiscences and deft English poems, showcasing a virtuoso command of rhyme, rhythm, and crystalline imagery; recurring themes include exile and memory, lost love and mortality, the small wonders of nature, and a sly, playful attention to language, all rendered with precise diction, elegiac undertow, and moments of mordant wit.
