As you may have noticed -- it is the Darwin Sesquicentennial. In browsing my copy of the catalogue of the Nabokov family library in Saint-Petersburg, I noted three Darwin titles:

!) L' éxpression de émotions des l'homme et les animaux (Paris 1877)

2) The Origin of the Species (New York)

3) The Descent of Man (New York)
