The present article examines the self-translation of the novel "The Eye" by Vladimir V. Nabokov. In particular, it takes into account how the English version differs from the Russian original one. Moreover, through an in-depth analysis of single words, this research demonstrates how Nabokov further complicated the English version, enriching it with deeper meanings. Ultimately, this study delves into actual problems both in the fields of Translation Studies and Nabokov Studies.
