Nabokovians might be interested in Lee McKay Johnson's "Finding the
Figure
in the Carpet: Vision and Silence in the Works of Henry James." Johnson
refers to VN several times, and suggests that James' sense of the ideal
novel reader corresponds to Nabokov's -- that is, the only ideal reader
is a
re-reader, who can apprehend the entire work simultaneously, like a
piece of
visual art.
