Without any question, this is Vladimir Nabokov's best-known work and it's easy to see why. Although Lolita is the kind of book you want to read with your eyes half shut in order to filter out some of the discomfort, you still feel the need to finish it. Reading the agonizing story of Humbert Humbert's obsession with Dolores Haze, a girl barely old enough to take the school bus on her own, is like watching a car crash in slow motion. The notes and introductions to this edition help the reader to understand the multiple layers within the novel. You'll fully understand the inevitable cultural clashes apparent here: not only between young and old, but also between the old country and the new. | The Annotated Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
