Subject: "Martyn" in VN's prose
I would like to thank numerous people who helped me with information,
suggestions and native speaker's intuition on the subject of VN's use
of the name "Martyn" in _Podvig_ and "Govoriat po-russki".
It seems that these are the only examples of Nabokov's use of this
name in his works; however, if any of you came across this name in his
other works, I would be grateful for a hint.
All the best,
