Lolita / Vladimir Nabokov.
Humbert Humbert, a middle-aged man, is aroused to erotic desire only by a young girl. Awe and exhilaration--along with heartbreak and mordant wit--abound in Nabokov's most famous and controversial novel about Humbert's obsessive, devouring, and doomed passion for the nymphet Dolores Haze. It is also the story of a hypercivilized European colliding with the cheerful barbarism of postwar America. Most of all, it is a meditation on love--love as outrage and hallucination, madness and transformation.-- Publisher.
