Subject: Re: VN Catalogue Book on Mehta's Coffee Table
Might that coffee-table book be Sarah Funke, Véra's
butterflies: First editions by Vladimir Nabokov inscribed to his wife (With
contributions by Brian Boyd et al.) (Edited by Glenn Horowitz), New York: Glenn
Horowitz Bookseller, 1999? The book also graces my coffee
table.

Table
Someone noticed in the Feb. issue of Vanity Fair on p. l57
a book on Nabokov on the coffee table in Sonny Mehta's apartment. It took a
magnifying glass to read the print on the book's spine: NABOKOV
Glenn Horowitz Bookseller. The book could be a catalog of the Nabokov archive in
the New York Public Library since Horowitz helped transfer the archive from
Switzerland to the Berg Collection. Any further ideas?
