Honestly, that's what made me think of it. I don't watch much TV but I really enjoyed brba and was hoping to find an book equivalent. Obviously without all the YO BITCH!

The only thing from the top of my head would be "Bahnwerther Thiel", though its a german novella and dont know if its available in english.

Are you arguing that Humbert or Lo is the main character?
