Dear Jansy,

You can find some anthologies that included works VN's
work by searching Google Books, Amazon, etc., for terms
such as "Nabokov anthology". The list won't be complete,
though. I think you'll find that his prose has been
anthologized more often than his poetry in English.

Following a strange speculation, I found out that the
Internet Speculative Fiction Database does list three
stories that have appeared in sf or sf-ish anthologies:
"A Visit to the Museum", "That in Aleppo Once...", and
"The Dashing Fellow", in collaboration with Dmitri
Nabokov. (It also lists /Invitation to a Beheading/ and
/Ada/.)

Since you were so kind as to mention my PF timeline, I'll
say that Jeff Edmunds just put the revised version on Zembla.
The main new part is my look at the order of events while
Kinbote is at Cedarn, which is much like the draft I posted
here last year. I also mentioned the questions about the
Botkin story that I can't resolve, and added a few minor
items, of which the most interesting may be a summary of
William Dowling's note (mentioned on this list before)
pointing out the apparent discrepancy of Kinbote's
reference to the WUL.

I imagine someone has already identified the "pro-Red revolt
in Iraq".
