Vera Slonim shared his delight at the enchantment of life's trifles and literature's treasures, and he rated her as having the best and quickest sense of humour of any woman he had met. From their meeting in 1921, Vladimir's letters to his beloved Vera form a narrative arc that tells a forty-six year-long love story, and they are memorable in their entirety.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAlmost always playful, romantic, and pithy, the letters tell us much about the man and the writer; we see that Vladimir observed everything, from animals, faces, speech, and landscapes with genuine fascination.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003cbr\u003ePublished: UK, 2016\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Penguin Modern Classics\u003cbr\u003ePages: 864\u003cbr\u003eLanguage: English\u003cbr\u003eISBN 13: 9780141192246\u003cbr\u003eISBN 10: 0141192246\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vladimir Nabokov","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45238260695306,"sku":"","price":19.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0282\/6066\/3399\/files\/9780141192246.jpg?v=1708787725","url":"https:\/\/www.shakespeareandsons.com\/products\/letters-to-vera","provider":"Shakespeare \u0026 Sons Buchhandel GmbH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
