About This Novel
Recognized as an outstanding novelist and stylist in the twentieth century, Vladimir Nabokov's works have had an indelible impact on English literature and even world literature. His masterpiece "Lolita" is one of the controversial and extremely important literary works of the 20th century. It is not only a concentrated expression of the writer's personal artistic style, but also a well-known classic of postmodernist literature. The novel tells the story of the crazy love affair between a middle-aged man, Humbert Humbert, a European immigrant who received higher education but whose behavior transcended moral boundaries, and a cute but dangerous and ruthless adolescent girl.

Sure enough, the name Loli comes from this book.
I was very envious of Humbert's life. His life included picture books, clean beaches, pet dogs, and beautiful sea views. He was also surrounded by a group of people. Sure enough, the life of a nobleman was different from that of ordinary people.
This book was difficult to read, maybe because the author was not proficient in using the English language, and the fancy language made me dizzy while reading. But all this cannot obscure the charm of this book.
Humbert's boyhood was also quite smooth, and he was loved by thousands of people. Although his mother passed away when he was 3 years old, his subsequent life did not seem to have much impact.
Mixed mood
There is a feeling that the rational cognitive function of the prefrontal lobe has been severely abused. ... I'm speechless. My Lo, Loli, Lolita.
There's nothing like saying, oh, your darling, something that's both sickening and loving to hear.
Sybil's experience was also quite tragic. She was married and abandoned, and then worked as an unpaid tutor and housekeeper in other people's homes. She also fell in love with the male master of their family. As a result, her love was taken advantage of.
