it's so beautifully written tho 

 

“Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Lo-lee-ta: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. Lo. Lee. Ta. She was Lo, plain Lo, in the morning, standing four feet ten in one sock. She was Lola in slacks. She was Dolly at school. She was Dolores on the dotted line. But in my arms she was always Lolita. Did she have a precursor? She did, indeed she did. In point of fact, there might have been no Lolita at all had I not loved, one summer, an initial girl-child. In a princedom by the sea. Oh when? About as many years before Lolita was born as my age was that summer. You can always count on a murderer for a fancy prose style. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, exhibit number one is what the seraphs, the misinformed, simple, noble-winged seraphs, envied. Look at this tangle of thorns.â€

 

of course it's creepy af but the prose is so beautifully created, props to nabokov tbh

Yes and yet I could barely talk about it for 7 pages, because I don't know what to say about such thing

I loved and hated to read the book. Nbokov is an amazing writer for sure, but I hated how disturbing the whole thing was :lol:

same, i think that's what nabokov was aiming for. sometimes you start to root for the main guy cause it's in his perspective, and then youre like. shit he's actually a pedophile lmao
