Crimean Style – 2013: A Sentimental Journey to the Peninsula of Nabokov’s Youth
Abstract
The essay by Maxim D. Shrayer (Boston College), “Crimean Style – 2013 A Sentimental Journey to the Peninsula of Nabokov’s Youth,” in the form of a travelogue chronicles the author’s trip to Crimea in October 2013, less than six months before the annexation of Crimea by Russia. Shrayer intersperses various historical, anthropological and cultural observations with information about Vladimir Nabokov’s stay in Crimea, in 1917-1919.
