Perhaps if Nabokov sat down to write a Lolita today he'd come out with something closer to Yellow Dog, with the modern-day excesses of our culture - pornography and the glorification of crime - ripe for satire. I'd have to give Lolita another read to be able to answer your question better.<br /><br />Yeah, I wish they'd send me to Russia as well. I don't think I could handle all the vodka I'd be offered, though. So when I come to Montreal, don't offer me vodka. Offer me poutine.palinodehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01029915232895358768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6943519.post-1099695522492900952004-11-05T16:58:00.000-06:002004-11-05T16:58:00.000-06:00Helvetica queries:

I want someone to elucidate the link between that place and such literature. I'm irrationally convinced that Martin Amis would write as well as Nabokov if only he (Amis) had grown up in Mother Russia. <br /><br />Say, are you coming to visit me anytime soon? You'd better, because I have a rapidly expanding list of Montrealicities to show you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6943519.post-1099599482423201672004-11-04T14:18:00.000-06:002004-11-04T14:18:00.000-06:00The 12th, you say?
