Dear Ingibjorg,
At the 2000 Nabokov Conference held in April at the VN museum a paper was presented: "Vladimir Nabokov i Roman Yakobson" (Yu. V. Safina, Poland). For the program of that year's Nabokovskie Chteniya, see here : http://www.nabokovmuseum.org/PDF/readings2000.pdf.
By the way, in the famous Jules Verne novel, the journey to the center of the world begins in Iceland.
While we are speaking of islands, may I point out that the action in another Jules Verne novel, "The Children of Captain Grant" (known on Antiterra as Microgalaxies, by Captain Grant), begins in Auckland, New Zealand.
Also, let me add (for the benefit of Jansy Mello) that Karafuto (Sakhalin) means "the Chinese island" in Japanese.
greetings from slushy and dark St. Petersburg,
Alexey
