Kurt Johnson and Brian Boyd's introduction ("Naturally Playful") to Vera's
Butterflies (Glenn Horowitz Bookseller 1999) has been translated into
Russian and appears in the recent issue (52, pp. 96-103) of the Russian
magazine Nashe Nasledie (Our Heritage). There is a black and white
photograph of Nabokov and his wife plus a full page "brown-tone" photograph
of Nabokov collecting butterflies. There are also 15 (often large) color
plates of Nabokov's butterfly drawings and two such butterflies printed on
the back cover of the magazine.
