In order to situate the letters to Vra quickly in time, the following Chronology offers only: (1) key dates in the lives of Nabokov and his immediate family; (2) the dates of his novels and autobiography (and the titles of their translations, where important in the letters); and, with most precision, (3) the dates when VN and Vra Slonim/VN were separated long enough for VN to send VN more than a single letter.
Bold italics indicate a departure of either from the others location (or departure and return in a single short trip); bold roman indicates a return. A line break precedes each departure or follows each return.
