Book Review of Lolita

Lolita
reviewed on + 205 more book reviews


The most tender, shocking and outrageous love story ever told, LOLITA has been banned, burned, censored, denounced- and read by more millions than any other book of its kind. It is about a middle-aged man's tormented desire for his nymphet step-daughter. And a honeymoon without a wedding. And a romance as sweet as murder is innocent. And a murder.
