Véra 免费 下载 115盘 pdf txt mobi caj lit

Winner of the 2000 Pulitzer Prize for biography and hailed by critics as both "monumental" (The Boston Globe) and "utterly romantic" (New York magazine), Stacy Schiff's Véra (Mrs. Vladimir Nabokov) brings to shimmering life one of the greatest literary love stories of our time. Vladimir Nabokov--the émigré author of Lolita ; Pale Fire ; and Speak, Memory --wrote his books first for himself, second for his wife, Véra, and third for no one at all.

"Without my wife," he once noted, "I wouldn't have written a single novel." Set in prewar Europe and postwar America, spanning much of the century, the story of the Nabokovs' fifty-two-year marriage reads as vividly as a novel. Véra, both beautiful and brilliant, is its outsized heroine--a woman who loves as deeply and intelligently as did the great romantic heroines of Austen and Tolstoy. Stacy Schiff's Véra is a triumph of the biographical form.

“在越南战争问题上，我们与你们不一致。”薇拉的话让毕肖普夫妇吃惊。毕肖普夫妇认为美国的军事行动可耻。“或许生活在国外给了我们不同的视角。再没有比战争更糟糕的事了，但老实说，我们看不出总统或其他人对此有什么别的办法。莫非把越南和整个远东都拱手让给共产主义者？人们不想承认，正是苏联在帮越南与美国作战。没有苏联，北越早就败了。这是反抗共产主义的生死较量，不是天涯海角发生的一场无关痛痒的战争。”
