Description
Mashenʹka (also published as Mary) is Nabokov’s debut novel, a poignant tale of nostalgia and unfulfilled longing. Set in a Berlin boarding house for Russian émigrés, the story centers on Lev Ganin, who discovers that his former lover, Mashenʹka, is now the wife of his neighbor. As memories resurface, Ganin is swept into a romantic idealization of the past, confronting the divide between illusion and reality. The novel introduces themes Nabokov would revisit throughout his career: exile, memory, and the elusive nature of time and love.
