	Books - Nine Stories

Nine Stories is an English-language collection of stories written in Russian, French, and English by Vladimir Nabokov. It was published in 1947 by New Directions in New York City, as the second issue of a serial, Direction.

The nine stories are:

"The Aurelian" (a translation by Nabokov and Peter Pertzov of "Pil'gram")
"Cloud, Castle, Lake" (a translation by Nabokov and Peter Pertzov of "Oblako, ozero, bashnia")
"Spring in Fialta" (a translation by Nabokov and Peter Pertzov of "Vesna v Fialta")
"Mademoiselle O" (a translation by VN with Hilda Ward from the French)
"A Forgotten Poet"
"The Assistant Producer"
"That in Aleppo Once..."
"Time and Ebb"
"Double Talk" (which would later be retitled "Conversation Piece")

No further edition of the book has ever been published; all nine stories subsequently reappeared in Nabokov's Dozen
, and much later within The Stories of Vladimir Nabokov.
