Vladimir Nabokov - The Defence

The Defence is one of the major novels by Vladimir Nabokov. The novel discribes a chess-genius Luzhin who discovers his talents in boyhood, rising into the rank of Grandmaster.

The Russian title of this novel is Zashchita Luzhina which means 'the Luzhin defense'. It was originaly writed and published in Russian in 1930 and translated to English by Michael Scammell in 1964 at collaboration with the author.

Nabokov himself said about this novel: "Of all my Russian books, The Defense contains and diffuses the greatest "warmth" - which may seem odd seeing how supremely abstract chess is supposed to be." Later he described this novel as the "story of a human who was crushed by his genius".
