Dear Brian,
If there are no tapes, that implies that
a. they were erased, or
b. they were lost or disposed of, or
c. they never existed to begin with.
Is there any information on any of these options?
Thanks much, Fran

As far as I know, there are no tapes. There’s a written biographical interview; Nabokov was even less inclined to speak off the cuff, to have his causal words set down in permanent form, when he was talking about his past, his county, his family.

Some of Field's stuff is at the Berg, at the NYPL. I'd be very curious to know what happened to the tapes.

Dear List,
I'm wondering if anyone knows of the location of Andrew Field's Nabokov materials that were auctioned some time ago. Does anyone know whether the materials contained the tapes of Field's interviews with Nabokov?
Thank you very much! Fran Assa
