Schiff Stacy. Vera (Mrs Vladimir Nabokov)

New York: Random, 1999.A book about Vladimir Nabokov's wife, Vera Nabokova (Slonim).
Vladimir and Vera Nabokov, two names that are forever entwined together in history, seem to be the original power couple in modern times, as evidenced by Stacy Schiff's incredible, highly-researched biography. Even more striking is the fact that they were a powerful couple only in the literary world, which is often eclipsed by some of the more, shall we say, tangible fields. But Vera: Mrs. Vladimir Nabokov shows without a doubt that Vladimir Nabokov would not have been the success he was, the VN steeped in Russian and English literature, without Vera.
