"Vladimir Nabokov, The House Was There
This recently discovered, never before published 1951 text was taped into
Vera Nabokov's copy, the dedication copy, of Conclusive Evidence, the
British edition of Nabokov's Speak, Memory. In this brief yet
extraordinary text, Nabokov revisits his family's house as a ghost along
with an unidentified sidekick named Hopkinson.

"Speak softly,
drive a Sherman tank.
Laugh hard,
it's a long way to the bank."
