The following is Sam Schuman's response to a general query about Nabokov
and Ayn Rand together with a query of his own. Nabokov-L will carry
something on Ms. Rand & VN tomorrow. I haven't read _Russka_. Should I?

Actually, a topic of some curiosity to me... Did you see the episode of The
Simpsons with a Randian pre-school?

Another query: There is a section of a current popular historical novel called
Russka, by a guy named Rutherfurd, with some distinctly Nabokovian echoes.
Anyone know anything about this?
