"Despair" (1934) - the sixth novel of Vladimir Nabokov, written in Berlin, and his third, after "King, ladies, jack" and "Camera obscura", a psychological and criminal novel that rejects the conventions of this genre Herman, a Berlin merchant of Russian-German origin, convinced of his genius, plots a crime that, like a work of art, should become a masterpiece of ingenuity and impeccable execution. Life, however, turns out to be much more witty and artistic than the vicious design, the curved mirror of which only distorts reality. The form of the first-person narrative, the hero-storyteller's belief in his own exceptionalism and brilliant syllable bring "Despair" together with "Lolita" written twenty years later.
