Abstract
The article expounds Nabokov’s collaboration with the review Russian Annals (Paris; Shanghai, 1937–1938, Nos. 1–20/21), where the writer published five of his works between December 1937 (№ 2) and February 1939 (№ 14). Based on archival data from the Hoover Institution, the study outlines their publication history and reveals the reasons why the collaboration ceased. Quotes from the correspondence between M. V. Vishniak, the review’s secretary, and the publisher M. N. Pavlovskii offer new insights into Nabokov’s personal and artistic biography at the end of the 1930s.
