Yeah, I actually have quite a lot. Is this coming out in Greek for you,
too? Just checking, cause it is for me. Anyway, take a look at the
archives, I saw quite a few comparisons between Salinger and Nabokov -
pre-eminently between the cahracter of John Shade in `Pale Fire' and
Seymour/Raymond from `The Inverted Forest'
