Speak, Memory Book Club (August 2025)
Reading Nabokov's Autobiography
We are back for another month of the Vladimir Nabokov book club!
This month, we are reading Nabokov’s autobiography, Speak, Memory, on August 9th at 9 AM.
Nabokov’s autobiography is like none ever written, the prose, style, and approach are INSANE! If you’ve never read Nabokov before, this isn’t a bad place to start, as the prose and life story are exciting.
Next month, we will be back on the grind with Pale Fire, but I think exploring Nabokov’s life will help us dive deeper into his works!
I would still encourage you to join if you can’t make the call because you can
Watch the recorded calls, which will be posted below
Lurk and listen to the call while it’s live if you’re busy with your family, commuting, working, or doing whatever. I am 100% fine with you popping in, saying your thoughts, and leaving if you’re super busy!
You can maybe make it to one of our other 10+ book clubs every month
FYI, beginners and expert readers are all welcome :)
We will meet on the date below at 9 AM PST on Zoom and talk for 45 minutes
