In "Edmund White: Biography", at Answers.com - www.answers.com/topic/white-edmund, "In Another Part Of The Forest: An Anthology of Gay Short Fiction" is related to E.White but, apparently, the anthology mentioned under this particular title isn't the one E.White organized, but the one that was edited by Alberto Manguel in 1994.*

In the meantime, I came across a new quotable title, namely "Another Part of the Forest" - a 1948 movie with Edmond O'Brien.**

I'm still in the dark about why Nabokov, in ADA, used quotes to refer to Van and Ada's forest...

*- Cf. a critical review at Amazon.com by Eric Bryant, "Library Journal" - : "Among the dozens of gay and lesbian anthologies focusing on a social topic or literary genre, this is the third recent anthology attempting to compass the breadth of modern "gay male literature." Unfortunately, this collection falls short of Edmund White's diverse The Faber Book of Gay Short Fiction (LJ 11/1/91), instead imitating David Leavitt's dreary The Penguin Book of Gay Short Stories (LJ 11/15/93).

** - Another Part of the Forest is a 1948 American drama film starring Fredric March and directed by Michael Gordon. The screenplay by Vladimir Pozner is based on the 1946 play of the same name by Lillian Hellman, which was a prequel to her 1939 drama The Little Foxes
