This edition presents for the first time with all possible completeness and textual accuracy the body of dramatic works of Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977), written by him in 1921-1942. For the first time in Russian, the drama “Man from the USSR” is published, the last of Nabokov’s major Russian-language works, still inaccessible to the Russian reader. With the release of this play, the long-term return of the writer's works to Russia ends . The text of Mr. Morn's Tragedy, which was printed only once in the periodical, is again checked with the manuscript . For the first time, translations of Nabokov's American lectures on the art of drama. are published. The publication is accompanied by an introductory article and detailed notes, in which, on the basis of archival research, the circumstances of the creation and production of Nabokov’s plays are recreated.
