Granta collections acquainted me with a journalistic piece
written by Edmund White. When I searched him in the internet I was
informed that "Although White is
known as a novelist whose work has been widely praised by such writers as
Vladimir Nabokov and Susan Sontag, it is as a cultural critic that White has
perhaps had his greatest influence. Urbane, knowing, sophisticated, he has
chronicled gay life in the seventies through the nineties with wit and
insight."( Cf.www.edmundwhite.com/ )
In fact, the great majority of E.White's works I
found listed in sites, has been written from the late seventies
on.
Can anyone inform me about what specific novels of
E.White were appreciated by Nabokov?
