>>	Anonymous Thu Nov 9 22:16:51 2017 No.10250019 >>10249202 Remember that the narrator actually explicitly requests that the story not be published until after both he and Dolores are dead so it doesn't make sense to think he has any ulterior motives.

Wow! Cheryl, you need to be more careful reading on the bus! LOL! One time I was reading the Bible and a group of hooligans was trying to shame me for trusting in the word of the LORD. Those college kids are just an example of why SPANKING is still necessary!

XOXOX

- Unreliable narrator
- A seemingly taboo love story
- Rationalisations that you won't like to hear but you will struggle to disagree with
- A challenging protagonist - his actions are abysmal yet you won't be helped in admiring his intelligence
- The struggle of parenthoods
- A paranoid drama where Humbert correctly believes he's being stalked by somebody who knows his secrets
- Beautiful, albeit flashy, prose.

A genuinely brilliant book. If you genuinely decide to read it, you're likely to love it too.
