Unlock the more straightforward side of Lolita with this concise and insightful summary and analysis!
This engaging summary presents an analysis of Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov, which is the enthralling and disturbing tale of Humbert, a man in his forties, who falls in love with a young girl, soon becoming her stepfather and taking advantage of this position to pursue a vastly unsettling romance with her and fulfil his illicit desires. Lolita is regarded as one of the prime achievements in 20th century literature, though also among the most controversial, and its assimilation into popular culture is such that the name ‘Lolita’ has been used to imply that a young girl is sexually precocious. Nabokov has achieved international prominence, and has been a finalist for the American National Book Award for Fiction seven times.
