Spring in Fialta and other stories (Весна в Фиальте и другие рассказы; "Vesna v Fialʹte i drugie rasskazy") is a collection of short stories by the Russian author Vladimir Nabokov. The collection contains 14 short stories written between 1931 and 1940. It was originally planned to be published in 1939 in Paris; however, due to the approach of World War II, it became an abandoned project.
The collection was first published in Russian in 1956 by the Chekhov Publishing House in New York.
