A review by pagesofnectar
The Original of Laura by Vladimir Nabokov
5.0
A novel in fragments? More like perfection in fragments!
Honestly, though, did you really not expect that the one and only Vladimir Nabokov would absolutely serve even in the case of a few pages of text and the marginalia of a book he was working on before he died? I mean, literary genius at their best!
The concept would've been so cool it breaks my heart, the fact that we get to see some of his notes on his writing while putting his words together glues my heart back together and the fact that I found gorgeous quotes to fall in love with even within such a small amount of sentences proves my point that Nabokov just rocks!
