A review by bookshelfbybub
Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov

dark tense slow-paced
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

The text is profoundly disturbing, but written in a prosaically beautiful way that one almost forgets it is so. Almost. 

The novel is strongest in part one, but wanes a bit in part two. The narrative tension is less, and my interest suffered for it.
