A review by samuelachillese
Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov

challenging dark emotional sad

4.5

One of those books that someone's opinion of it REALLY tells you if they're worthy of talking to in any meaningful way, and is one of the most profoundly misunderstood texts perhaps of all time (I first read this as a teenager, and a second reread as an adult only confirms this). Anyone who thinks this is a romance has terrible reading comprehension. That said, the book makes me nauseous to read and I love it.
