'The Berlin setting, German characters, and cruel world view set Laughter in the Dark somewhat apart from the bulk of Nabokov's oeuvre.'
Hmm...not strikingly different in themes or setting to King, Queen, Knave - Berlin, German characters, infidelity etc. Surely that's like saying the settings of Money, Night Train & Time's Arrow set them apart from the rest of MA's oeuvre...when in fact they ARE the oeuvre.
Anyway, have a good time Brooklyn - driving your Porsche up to The Hamptons for the week?
