A review by leathehatless
O Original de Laura by Vladimir Nabokov

5.0

Originally from GIP

The Original of Laura is not a book, it's a memoir. It's a look into the life of Nabokov and the creative process of an author while creating the embryo of a book. It's great to see the ideas, the construction of the text in the many phases of writing.

Sadly, Nabokov never finished this novel but we got a peek on the mind of a very controversial author and the love he had for his work.

It's a good book to read lightly.
