We listened to a ten minute NPR segment on the 50th anniversary of Lolita, which was rather interesting, not the least because of the unintended humor of an interviewee named "Carol Tart". You'd think it was a name N. had come up with.

And, Jennie Lynn has proved in her latest blog that N. was rather influenced by Finnegans Wake, despite his assertions of dislike for it. Little children making a RAYNBOW... how oddly Joycean, and Nabokovian.


And we made up answers for the test on Thursday. We shall see what happens if McFate doesn't intervene.
