I treat Nabokov as a philosopher, this "imagination is a form of
memory"
or "I am an indivisible monist" are amazing for me. As to details
I forget in this moment this details (I had not found much but it
was something - Gradus as a alarm-clock somwhere so I understand
that
Gradus wake up Shade (1->2) not killed him (1->0), as to Balthazar
somewhere Is mentioned that he is on higher level of "green ladder"
or
something like that). I also think that interpretation of
any novel do not have to be "true", vivid imagination which possibly
may be
over true it is also interesting.
