Historical Context and Significance

The Eye by Vladimir Nabokov, written in 1930, is an important work in the context of Russian émigré literature. The book explores themes of identity, self-awareness, and alienation, which were relevant to Russian émigrés of that time. Nabokov's influence on culture is evident in his unique style, complex narrative structure, and deep psychological portraits of characters. The Eye also foreshadows many themes and techniques that Nabokov developed in his later works, such as Lolita and Pale Fire.
