Darkly comic exploration of obsession and guilt.

"Lolita" is a remarkable blend of stylish prose and provocative subject matter that impressively captures a deeply flawed character's perspective. Nabokov masterfully crafts Humbert's narration, leading you through a perverse reflection on love that is as disturbing as it is fascinating. You'll find yourself marveling at the linguistic prowess while wrestling with the moral complexities presented. This book is for those who appreciate literary genius and are ready to dive into a story that defies conventional storytelling with its blend of satire, passion, and intellectual depth.

Description

Humbert Humbert - scholar, aesthete and romantic - has fallen completely and utterly in love with Dolores Haze, his landlady's gum-snapping, silky skinned twelve-year-old daughter. Reluctantly agreeing to marry Mrs Haze just to be close to Lolita, Humbert suffers greatly in the pursuit of romance; but when Lo herself starts looking for attention elsewhere, he will carry her off on a desperate cross-country misadventure, all in the name of love. Hilarious, flamboyant, heart-breaking and full of ingenious word play, Lolita is an immaculate, unforgettable masterpiece of obsession, delusion and lust.
