Pele Fire 'book of names' is Pnin
From

I am not sure it it was stated here or not, but for me it is almost 100%
sure
that 'book of names' mentioned in professors dialogue in Pale Fire
is "Pnin". I think that Pnin and Pale Fire (and possibly also Lolita)
are mysteriously interconnected. I have no strong evidences
for that, only weak - lost glove in pnin and pale fire, haze in lolita
and hazel in pale fire - but for that, that _pnin_is_that_book_of_names_
I am reasonably sure. I think that Pnin and Pale Fire are
complementary parts of one vision in different optics
(and maybe even crown jewels should be searched in pnin
as i wrote some time ago) Pnin is for me very strange book
because it is really a 'book of many names', enumeration
of names. I would appreciate if someone maybe would find once
more about it in Pnin - what that 'book of names' is all about
