The cross Pnin wears is described as Greek Catholic, and so are Liza's
and Chateau's religion. The vast majority of Russians ar Orthodox, so
it would be a sociological oddity for three Russian emigres to happen
to belong to a minority religion and an artistic oddity, given
Nabokov's very dim interest in religion, to focus on this detail. On
the other hand, I can't think of a more deliberate author. Could
anyone explain?
Question #2. After two years Lolita writes to Humbert who now dwells
with Rita in an NYC apartment. How could she have possibly known the
address? Unless there is a a plausible explanation that escapes me,
this would be perhaps the only, albeit major flaw in the plot.
