After reading 10% and skimming through many of Nabokov's diagrams with accompanying explanations, I have come to the conclusion that I have neither the scientific knowledge or depth of interest to continue with this book. I was hoping for something that more obviously blended the natural and literary worlds but have not found what I was looking for.

From having read Nabokov's memoir, Speak, Memory, I know that his interest in butterflies was beyond that of an amateur. Until I began reading this book, however, I had no idea how involved in the scientific pursuit of information he was over the course of his life.
