Nabokov's Congeries was a collection of work byVladimir Nabokov published in 1968 and reprinted in 1971 asThe Portable Nabokov. It was edited byPage Stegner.[1] Because Nabokov supervised its production less than a decade before he died, it is useful in attempting to identify which works Nabokov considered to be his best, especially among his short stories.
The text of "The Assistant Producer" contained inNabokov's Congeries omits the story's final two paragraphs, which had apparently been inadvertently dropped from all English-language editions of the story subsequent to the first. This was explained by the author's son in his introduction to the posthumously published collectionThe Stories of Vladimir Nabokov (1995), in which the story appears with its final paragraphs restored.
