Synopses & Reviews
Lolita, la mas famosa y controversial novela de Vladimir Nabokov, cuenta la historia de la obsesion devoradora del cuarenton Humbert Humbert por la ninfula Dolores Haze. Ternura y fascinacion --ademas de tristeza y un humor mordaz-- llenan sus paginas pero es, por encima de todo, una meditacion sobre el amor--el amor como abuso y alucinacion, locura y transformacion.
Synopsis
'Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Lo-lee-ta: the tip of my tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. Lo. Lee. Ta.'
Humbert Humbert is a middle-aged, frustrated college professor. In love with his landlady's twelve-year-old daughter Lolita, he'll do anything to possess her. Unable and unwilling to stop himself, he is prepared to commit any crime to get what he wants.
Is he in love or insane? A silver-tongued poet or a pervert? A tortured soul or a monster? Or is he all of these?
