Editorial note

If you found this story amusing, but are a little bit daunted by the loquacity or infamy of his novels, I'd strongly recommend trying Nabokov's Lectures in Literature, which expands on lectures given at Cornell, and give you a wonderful introduction to his world, and introduces the writers he considered canon. I always remember this passage from the end of the book, addressing his students, because of the outrageous metaphor: Now the course comes to a close.
