"More about Fists and Some Other Body Parts
Mentioned in Nabokov's Ada," yet another product of my little
private distillery, is now available in Zembla: http://www.libraries.psu.edu/nabokov/sklyarenko9.doc (in
Russian, in Word format). I hope
it also contains, like the in-vino-veritas piece
(well-seasoned now, soon to be bottled and sealed), a few grams of
alcohol that will slightly intoxicate a reader or two. I'm sorry people with no Russian can't
read this and previous articles (http://topos.ru/article/6816). Alas, the
only universally acclaimed author who doesn't need translation and can be
appreciated by everybody, regardless of the language one
speaks, is, according to Vyazemsky, Moët.
