Irreverent and refined, this is one of the most celebrated novels of all time. It is also an intellectual adventure that leaves no one indifferent, a passionate account of a wild sensuality, an unrelenting autopsy of the American way of life. On the one hand, a middle-aged man, obsessive and cynical. On the other, a twelve-year-old girl, perversely naive. Chemistry is made and gives rise to a masterpiece of the literature of our century. 'Lolita' is shocking, defies taboos, scandalizes. The book was incorporated into the collective imagination of modernity, and even the character's name has become a common noun, evidence of the author's reach and genius.
