A review by safwah_ar
Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov

5.0

A highly controversial book that (in my opinion) often gets overlooked because of its provocative content. But the way Nabokov wrote this book is beautiful and perfume-y, adorned with words that help to evoke vivid imagery within the minds of the readers. Also, the first-person narration works perfectly in order to tell the readers about the main character, Humbert Humbert and to put us in his mind and make us examine the way he thinks. The descriptions of road trips in the book tells stories about the land that they're travelling on (America) in indirect ways. I will definitely reread it again.
