On Nabokov, my favorite master of literature

Gao Xiaosong once said in xiaoshuo that the characters in the novel are fictional, but things are often true He also suggested understanding history from literary works, rather than simply through historical books I agree with you very much, and I learned a lot about the world from literature Thousands of years of changes, many things have changed, the only thing that has not changed is human nature Part of the reason why Nabokov fascinated me was that the characters in his novels were vivid and full of humanity, which I later figured out Nabokov was born in a distinguished family in Russia He received excellent cultural education since his childhood He was proficient in several languages and read a large number of literary masterpieces Later, because of the domestic revolution, he was forced to exile abroad, and traveled to Turkey, Germany, Italy and France, and finally became a citizen of the United States Due to his unique experience, his literary works have not only rigorous Russian literary accomplishment, but also the insight of European literature, as well as the ridicule and humor of American literature Most importantly, most of the characters in Nabokov's novels are literate, elite or rich people who have fallen into the world They are far away from other places In order to survive, they use all kinds of means to taste the bitterness of the world However, if they are down again, they should maintain the final dignity of being human Because of this, Nabokov's novels are full of human nature, love and emotional elements Now I mainly study the complete works of Nabokov's short stories, and then I read Madame Bovary carefully again under the guidance of the lecture notes of literature Ulysses sees Chapter 9 and pauses for a while, because reading this book always makes me dream, and when I wake up, my memory is clear, which has never been before It seems that Joyce's stream of consciousness has a great influence on the brain Of course, the role of this book is very positive, which can stimulate the desire for creation, but it needs to be imagined when reading In addition, a large number of times are very strange, so it's hard to read Take a few days off, and then continue to study this book.
