@RyanMorholt So gorgeous

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

Speaking of POD, this arrived and tis’ a thing of beauty.

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

@BigPapaMuchow I undertook the same dilemma and ended up with Gibbon.

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

@Pur_pleGuy You read both?

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

@goblinessence Must get to it soon!

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

@ringdottaylor $200 Australian.

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

@PaulEhrlich13 How has it been so far, a steady slow read I’m sure?

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

@EmmettStinson Is Murnane’s oeuvre on there?

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

@DepartureJay I’ve always defended The Remains of the Day, but it is objectively not better than Pale Fire, The Brother’s K, The Trial and Don Quixote (I haven’t read Lolita).

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

A few new arrivals.

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

Me; exclusively.

[LADE HERSELF @Thebiglade]

who still prefers reading physical books over digital ones??

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

@RickOehling I’ll have to tackle The Good Apprentice next because I have that.

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

Books read since February. Guess my favourite.

@darwin8u They were all incredible. If I had to rank them:

4. Whores for Gloria
3. Laughter in the Dark
2. Skin Elegies
1. Nabokov’s Dozen.

Do you have any other Olsen recommendations?

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

@RickOehling Nailed it. And my first of hers too.

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

@adavidsouthard It was my first and I loved it.

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

@damiankelleher This just went up in price.

[Eleventh Volume @EleventhVolume]

@nosubstance I have the first of the those two volumes. So excited to dig into that eventually once I’ve read a few more of his novels.

What’s your favourite Nabokov? I’ve got an itch.
