"Pnin" is a novel by Vladimir Nabokov that tells the story of Professor Pnin, a Russian émigré who teaches a group of apathetic students. Pnin faces the difficulties of modern life and the pettiness of his colleagues, while dealing with the memory of a past love. Despite the adversities, Pnin emerges as a heroic figure, a civilized being in an industrialized world, who retains his human dignity. Nabokov satirizes the world he had to live as an émigré, conveying the pleasure of being alive despite the difficulties.
Vladimir Vladimirovich Nabokov, also known by the pen name Vladimir Sirin, was a Russian and American novelist, poet, translator, and entomologist.
