| The Real Life of Sebastian Knight is one of Vladimir Nabokovâ s most autobiographical novels and it has often been observed that Sebastianâ s passionate affair with the femme fatale Nina Rechnoy is a dramatized extension of Nabokovâ s infatuation with Irina Guadanini. In this book it is shown that the novel also conceals another, secluded, love affair Sebastian had with a man, which reflects the main episode in the life of Nabokovâ s brother Sergey. By pursuing many biographical and literary references and allusions, and by disregarding the deceptive guiding by the narrator (Sebastianâ s half-brother), this moving story about Sebastianâ s silent love becomes brightly visible. |
