爱达或爱欲：一部家族纪事

The prose is so lush and detailed — I wonder how much of that was intentional to evoke intimacy and desire. Did the language elevate the emotional stakes for others as well?

The relationship is intense and complicated, and I kept questioning whether Nabokov was critiquing or glorifying it. How did others interpret the moral aspect of their bond?

The story weaves through time and memory in a way that feels almost playful. I wonder if this structure was planned from the start or evolved during writing.
