Tim Henderson has just pointed out to me that I gave the incorrect address
for the new St. Petersburg Nabokov Web Site. I have corrected it below.
My thanks to TH and my apologies to all.

My problems with the Cyrillic remain, although Jeff Edmunds now reports a
fix. ONe must install the ARIAL Cyrillic font. Please send me any reports
on this and I shall report the outcome.

ANNOUNCEMENT

The Nabokov Foundation in St. Petersburg, housed in the old family
building on Morskaya, has announced the establish of its own Web Site. The
address is: http://www.comset.spb.ru/nabokov

The site is, of course, Russian language. Although my machine is set up to
use Cyrillic, I have so far been able to get only a sort of Latin alphabet
soup with diverse diacritics over the letter. The visuals are fine. I do
not know whether the problem is mine or otherwise. Perhaps some of you
with Cyrillic-adapter computers can give it a shot and let me know what
the problem is.
