Pnin (1957), the fourth English-language novel by Vladimir Nabokov, is dedicated to the vicissitudes of life of one of the most defenseless and touching characters in the literature of the XX century. Russian Russian intellectual, a wonderful scientist, but an eccentric and unlucky man, Timofey Pnin, who left Russia after the revolution of 1917, teaches Russian literature at an American university, where he becomes an accidental victim of intrigues and callousness of colleagues. Will he be able to escape this time from his cunning creator, who has prepared for him the fate of a sufferer, forced to endure the blows of fate over and over again? 'Pnin' was released shortly after the scandalous 'Lolita' and, having received rave reviews from readers and critics, served as a kind of antithesis to the prevailing idea of 'immorality' and 'callousness' Nabokov.This edition of the novel is accompanied by a preface, notes and a final essay by the translator.The features of the translator's spelling, punctuation and transliteration are preserved.
