Subject: Another Nabokov reference in The New Yorker

In "A Life in the Margins," an essay about Graham Greene's library in the
April 11 New Yorker, Robert McCrum mentions how Greene "championed" Nabokov
during the publication of Lolita. Nabokov inscribed his gratitude for
Greene's "courageous support" in a first edition of Lolita. (53).
