Of translating <i>Lolita</i>, Nabokov writes, "I imagined that in some distant future somebody might produce a Russian version of <i>Lolita</i>. I trained my inner telescope upon that particular point in the distant future and I saw that every paragraph, pock-marked as it is with pitfalls, could lend itself to hideous mistranslation. In the hands of a harmful drudge, the Russian version of <i>Lolita</i> would be entirely degraded and botched by vulgar paraphrases or blunders.
