A brief about the book "Letters to Vera" "Letters to Vera" is not just an "anthology" that contains between its pages letters from a husband to his wife, but it is the story of departure and what went with the wind — the journey of years of bitterness by the distinguished writer Nabokov (author of "Lolita") with his esteemed position in three different world literatures: English, French, and Russian. This book is the Odyssey flowing in letters, whose covers were openly torn and revealed before everyone, it is the journey of a lifetime, through papers that Nabokov would never have imagined his son would someday publish his secrets. The book contains 287 letters, written from 1923 until 1976, to tell what he left of fine art, octopus-like relationships, a biography written from heart to heart, kept in a safe that hands do not touch and eyes do not see. It is a great book that will change common concepts about Nabokov, about the writers he met, about his religious or political stances, and secrets about secret organizations that sought to embrace him, such as Freemasonry or British intelligence... It also reveals that "there is no clear sky without clouds" in his relationship with his wife Vera, despite the great love that united them, which might be one of the most famous love stories of its time.
