Sobre este artículo

London: Heinemann,, 1959. Inscribed by Nabokov First UK edition, first impression, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper, and rare thus: "Vladimir Nabokov Oct. 31 1959 London", likely at the behest of Jean, to whom the book was inscribed five months prior in a different hand: "To Jean on her departure! May 5th 59". This was inscribed by Nabokov on Halloween, in London, the year the British edition of Lolita was published by Weidenfeld and Nicolson. Nabokov's Dozen was first published in book form in the US in 1958; the UK edition, published 16 March 1959, contains four additional stories: "Signs and Symbols", "Scenes from the Life of a Double Monster", "Lance", and "First Love", which (in Nabokov's own words) "became the darling of anthologists". Octavo. Original blue cloth, spine lettered in gilt, Heinemann mill blind on rear board. With the dust jacket. A little dust staining to extremities, a couple of gentle bumps to rear joint, edges foxed, extending occasionally to text block, else firm and clean. A very good copy indeed, in the jacket, rear panel foxed, unclipped, short closed tear to head of spine panel, tiny chips to ends of folds, occasional nick and spot of rubbing to extremities, head of flaps a little toned, else a notably sharp, bright example. Michael Juliar, Nabokov Bibliography, A32. Vladimir Nabokov, Speak Memory.
