People who haven't read Lolita often assume that it's erotica, but it really isn't. Are there any novels that actually feature erotica involving a Humbert/Lolita relationship? That isn't portrayed as evil/a rape scene?

It's a strawberry presented as a vagina. It's ugly, it's too impressed with its own provocativeness, and it's irrelevant to the actual contents of the book. It's a great cover for what people who have never read "Lolita" think the book is.

Is this book good or just a meme? I tried watching the movie but didnt like it. Maybe I was not interested enough.

>> No.19639367

>>19638775
It's good but the best thing about it is the prose. I never watched the movie(s) because they all aged up Dolores to a teenager, and I don't see how that could do anything but detract from the coherence of the story.

Kek. Also, the definition of 'pornography' is
>printed or visual material containing the explicit description or display of sexual organs or activity, intended to stimulate erotic rather than aesthetic or emotional feelings.
So are you saying that the naked little girl primarily stimulates you erotically, rather than aesthetically or emotionally? That's very interesting, anon.

You can say it's a metaphor if you want, but I don't think anyone is looking at that strawberry and getting a hard-on. Maybe some 90 year old guy who thinks playboys are too explicit, idk. But it's just a piece of fruit.

>We could make it a vagina! I went to a graphic design school and a vagina here is fitting. One of the characters has a vagina after all and I think the book is about sex. But I know this book is very smart, so we draw a vagina over a brain? I am SO clever, oh my gosh, this is such a nice idea. The customers will see the vagina and think "is that a vagina? This is so shocking!" and they will be curious to know if the book talks about vagina. Then they come closer and will see, oh, look, it's a brain! So this book is smart. I have a brain too, so I know I am smart. This is why I have these nice cover ideas. I also have a vagina and I know I am interesting, so if there's a vagina on the book the book must be interesting, too. I have a friend who blogs at Medium who can talk about how shocking and controversial the vagina is. Vagina. I have a vagina.

Yes, I can point to exactly where the strawberry is. And if I asked 100 people to identify the object in the image, most or all would say "strawberry". If I asked them, "can you identify anything in this image apart from a strawberry?" most or all would say no. And if I asked them "is there a vagina in this image", most or all would say no. You can protest and shake your head all you want, but tell me how what I just said is wrong. You can't.
