“Should I read this book? ”
“An émigré's testament to the English language.”
“An amazing book.Pathetic. Disturbing. Daring. Surprizing. Stunning. Everything.Lolita, the little nimphet and Humbert Humbert are well-drawn characters. Really impressive story :)I love it, it's in my Top 5 of great books I've ever read. :x”
“this is deservedly a true classic. I had reservations about the subject matter but once you get into it you find yourself forgetting your reservations about the paedophilic aspect of the storyline and fascinated by the character of HH. The language is impressive, and when one thinks that English was not nabokov´s mother tongue, doubly so. ”
“love this book! loved that his description of one tiny thing is a whole paragraph! like when he described when his lolita was riding a bike or when she was reading a book on the grass. awkward. giggles. sensual. love it! ”
“Shelfari take note: Lolita should NOT be tagged as "erotica." In his afterward, Nabokov talks about what erotica is, and Lolita does not fit the bill. It's actually pretty gross to think of this as "erotica."”
“great job”
“This is the book for November”
“"of any vulgar untidy highschool girl who applies shared cosmetics with grubby fingers to an unwashed face and does not mind what soiled texture, what putstulate epidermis comes in contact with her skin". he describes everything so well. what a love story.”
“can anyone tell me if and where i can read this book online?”
