Viac o knihe

Nabokov's wise, ironic, and elegant masterpiece. • A controversial love story almost shocking in its beauty and tenderness. • This annotated edition assiduously illuminates the extravagant wordplay and the frequent literary allusions, parodies, and cross-references. • Edited with a preface, introduction, and notes by Alfred Appel, Jr. "Fascinatingly detailed." -Edmund Morris, The New York Times Book Review When it was published in 1955, Lolita immediately became a cause célèbre because of the freedom and sophistication with which it handled the unusual erotic predilections of its protagonist. Awe and exhilaration–along with heartbreak and mordant wit–abound in this account of the aging Humbert Humbert's obsessive, devouring, and doomed passion for the nymphet Dolores Haze. Lolita is also the story of a hypercivilized European colliding with the cheerful barbarism of postwar America, but most of all, it is a meditation on love–love as outrage and hallucination, madness and transformation.

Trochu ma sklamal dej, ale príbeh bol zaujímavý. Taká fajn oddychovka. Občas ma to rozosmialo a občas to bolo frustrujúce čakanie na nejakú zápletku.

Dílo je známo především pro své kontroverzní téma a erotický náboj, i proto bylo mnohokrát zpracováno. Bohužel se zapomíná, že je to především geniálně propracovaný román a jeho autor má skvěle vybroušený jazykový styl.
