Nine Stories (Nabokov)
Nine Stories is an English-language collection of stories written in Russian, French, and English by Vladimir Nabokov. It was published in 1947 by New Directions in New York City, as the second issue of a serial, Direction.
The nine stories are:
- "The Aurelian " (a translation by Nabokov and Peter Pertzov of "Pil'gram")
- "Cloud, Castle, Lake " (a translation by Nabokov and Peter Pertzov of "Oblako, ozero, bashnia")
- "Spring in Fialta " (a translation by Nabokov and Peter Pertzov of "Vesna v Fialta")
- "Mademoiselle O " (a translation by VN with Hilda Ward from the French)
- "A Forgotten Poet "
- "The Assistant Producer "
- "That in Aleppo Once... "
- "Time and Ebb "
- "Double Talk" (which would later be retitled "Conversation Piece ")
No further edition of the book has ever been published; all nine stories subsequently reappeared in Nabokov's Dozen , and much later within The Stories of Vladimir Nabokov.
