Hello NABOKV-L,

I've not yet finished Orlando by Virginia Woolf, yet I want to know
if the similitude between Oak Tree from Invitation to a Beheading and
Oak Tree from Orlando evident to everyone?
BTW, does everybody see that Invitation to a Beheading takes almost
all its flesh and spirit from Alice in Wonderland? Even the
translation of the title -- in Russian it was simply Kazn, execution,
no sign of the way of execution, -- connects it with one of the first
dream-books.

Best regards,
