Nabokov discusses Lolita

Submitted by Robert Daeley on Mon, 2009-11-30 09:10.

Video of Vladimir Nabokov discussing Lolita on a television interview program. The YouTube uploader believes it is from the CBC’s Close-Up, which ran from 1957-1963, but I haven’t been able to confirm that elsewhere. It’s cool to hear Nabokov’s voice, not to mention strange as he was not a fan of live interviews, if I recall correctly.
