"Lolita" es una novela icónica escrita por Vladimir Nabokov que ha generado un profundo impacto en la literatura moderna. Publicada por primera vez en 1955, esta obra maestra desafía las convenciones narrativas y morales al contar la historia de Humbert Humbert, un profesor de mediana edad obsesionado con las niñas preadolescentes, y su relación con Dolores Haze, a quien él apoda "Lolita". Nabokov teje una narrativa compleja y multifacética a través de la voz de Humbert, un narrador poco confiable que busca justificar y romanticizar su relación con Lolita. La prosa exquisita de Nabokov y su habilidad para crear personajes vívidos y psicológicamente complejos hacen que la historia sea tanto fascinante como perturbadora. Yeah, I think you've likely heard of Lolita. It's astonishing however how this novel seems to get characterized, in blurbs such as the one here on Goodreads. The "freedom and sophistication" in the telling of "a love story almost shocking in its beauty and tenderness", and "most of all, it is a meditation on love". How different and much less appealing the novel would seem I guess if advertised as a story told from inside the head of a child rapist. That would be irresponsible commercial blurbing. It's an excellent novel, but a love story it is not. The protagonist is written in a way that certainly causes Nabokov controversy, because the character is writing this story to the reader from his prison cell and wants the reader to, yes, view it as a doomed love story. But that's what the character is doing, not what Nabokov is doing. Nabokov is tricky, I mean this is the 13th novel of his that I've read now, I know he's tricky and an extremely erudite writer, but still, this should be apparent. Humbert tells us from the start of his journey with Lolita that he won her compliance by threatening her with what would become of her as an orphan child if she tries to escape him. He writes of withholding breakfast from her until she "performs her morning duties". He writes of "her sobs in the night - every night, every night - the moment I feigned sleep." Humbert himself, despite his other self-delusions, seems pretty clear that the "love" in this situation is entirely one-sided, it's just that though he makes performative nods in his telling of the story to feeling guilt on occasion, he's entirely self-centered. He feels love, therefore this is a love story. The reader should obviously know better. It's not a love story, it's a story from the point of view of a child rapist. They say a reader can live a thousand lives. I've always believed it but never felt it until now. Reading Lolita was seeing through the eyes of a tortured man who hates almost everything including himself. The delirious love he bore for the little girl shone a single hazy candle in the dark vile cellar of his life. I was mesmerized by Nabokov's elaborate depictions of people, places and events that Humbert encountered, how none of them were of any importance to him, how he loathed them all, pushed them away from him, manipulated the world to leave him alone with his treasure so he could drown in it completely. It's poetic and utterly terriifying how one sided a man can get, how one desire can dominate and ruin his life. Lolita av Vladimir Nabokov är ett brilliant verk — en litterär klassiker och mästerverk. Berättelsen följer vår opålitliga berättare Humbert Humbert som faller sig förälskad i en 12-årig flicka vid namn Dolores Haze — i ett desperat försök till att komma henne närmare gifter han sig motvilligt med sin värdinna — vilket även är Dolores mamma.
35 livres cultes à lire au moins une fois dans sa vie Quels sont les romans qu'il faut avoir lu absolument ? Un livre culte qui transcende, fait réfléchir, frissonner, rire ou pleurer… La littérature est indéniablement créatrice d’émotions. Si vous êtes adeptes des classiques, ces titres devraient vous plaire. De temps en temps, il n'y a vraiment rien de mieux que de se poser devant un bon bouquin, et d'oublier un instant le monde réel. Mais si vous êtes une grosse lectrice ou un gros lecteur, et que vous avez épuisé le stock de votre bibliothèque personnelle, laissez-vous tenter par ces quelques classiques de la littérature. Nabokov’s tragicomic tour de force crosses the boundaries of good taste with glee. Their story is as vile and obscene as one can imagine, but Humbert’s voice, an endlessly inventive stream of angry, cosmopolitan invective, elevates it to the level of a tragic, twisted epic. Lolita is more the shocking because it is both intensely lyrical and wildly funny ... a Medusa's head with trick paper snakes Nabokov's command of words, his joy in them, his comic and ecstatic use of them, makes reading his work such an intense joy Pertany a aquestes col·leccions editorialsContingut aTé l'adaptacióTé un estudiTé un comentari al textTé una guia d'estudi per a estudiantsPremisDistincionsLlistes notables
(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)When it was published in 1955, "Lolita" immediately became a cause célèbre because of the freedom and sophistication with which it handled the unusual erotic predilections of its protagonist. But Vladimir Nabokov's wise, ironic, elegant masterpiece owes its stature as one of the twentieth century's novels of record not to the controversy its material aroused but to its author's use of that material to tell a love story almost shocking in its beauty and tenderness. Awe and exhilaration-along with heartbreak and mordant wit-abound in this account of the aging Humbert Humbert's obsessive, devouring, and doomed passion for the nymphet Dolores Haze. Lolita is also the story of a hypercivilized European colliding with the cheerful barbarism of postwar America, but most of all, it is a meditation on love-love as outrage and hallucination, madness and transformation.With an Introduction by Martin Amis "From the Hardcover edition."

Humbert é um homem instruído, educado, com capacidade de reflexão, parece-me plausível que conte a história à sua maneira e se esforce por encontrar uma versão que justifique os seus comportamentos.
Humbert à procura de alojamento numa pacata cidade americana, acaba por encontrar Dolores Haze - Lolita, uma menina de 12 anos.
A história concentra-se em Humbert e a sua obsessão.
Humbert não só consegue atrair Lolita, como também conquista o leitor por meio das suas palavras.
"ʟᴏʟɪᴛᴀ, ʙʀɪʟʜᴏ ᴅᴀ ᴍɪɴʜᴀ ᴠɪᴅᴀ, ꜰᴏɢᴏ ᴅᴏꜱ ᴍᴇᴜꜱ ꜰʟᴀɴᴄᴏꜱ. ᴍɪɴʜᴀ ᴀʟᴍᴀ, ᴍɪɴʜᴀ ʟᴀᴍᴀ. ʟᴏ‑ʟɪɪ‑ᴛᴀ: ᴀ ᴘᴏɴᴛᴀ ᴅᴀ ʟÍɴɢᴜᴀ ᴇɴʀᴏʟᴀ ɴᴏ ᴘᴀʟᴀᴛᴏ ᴇ ᴅᴇꜱʟɪᴢᴀ, ᴛʀÊꜱ ꜱᴏᴄᴀʟᴄᴏꜱ, ᴀᴛÉ Qᴜᴇ ᴇꜱᴛᴀᴄᴀ, ᴀᴏ ᴛᴇʀᴄᴇɪʀᴏ, ɴᴏꜱ ᴅᴇɴᴛᴇꜱ. ʟᴏ. ʟɪ. ᴛᴀ."
Tornamo-nos observadores e intérpretes de algo que tem um carácter perverso e chocante. Mostra-nos a obscuridade e a crueldade das suas razões, e o evidente efeito nocivo que provoca em Lolita. À medida que o tempo e as ações avançam, ele sabe que se está a aproveitar do estado em que ela se encontra. Lemos a utilização do poder intelectual e físico como forma de subjugar uma jovem vítima.
“ʏᴏᴜ ꜱᴇᴇ, ꜱʜᴇ ʜᴀᴅ ᴀʙꜱᴏʟᴜᴛᴇʟʏ ɴᴏᴡʜᴇʀᴇ ᴇʟꜱᴇ ᴛᴏ ɢᴏ.”
Existem dois componentes a considerar neste livro: a profundidade, a eloquência da escrita e a temática chocante e perturbadora.
Nabokov transforma o seu texto numa forma lúdica, sedutora, poética, contudo extremamente perigosa. Há um conflito entre moral e estética a acontecer em cada página.
No decurso da prosa engenhosa e estimulante, a travessia da América pelos dois protagonistas levaram-me a construir uma variedade de cenários norte-americanos.
Como está escrito no prefácio do livro, "...mais ainda do que o peso científico e o valor literário, importa sobretudo o impacto ético que o livro terá no leitor ponderado; pois neste estudo pungente e pessoal esconde-se uma lição genérica: a criança rebelde, a mãe egocêntrica e o maníaco depravado não são apenas personagens vívidas numa história única, mas alertam-nos para perigosas tendências e isolam os nossos demónios. Lolita deverá fazer que todos nós - pais, assistentes sociais, educadores - nos apliquemos ainda com mais vigilância e visão na tarefa de formar uma geração melhor num mundo mais seguro."
“ɪ ᴡᴀꜱ ᴀ ᴅᴀɪꜱʏ ꜰʀᴇꜱʜ ɢɪʀʟ ᴀɴᴅ ʟᴏᴏᴋ ᴡʜᴀᴛ ʏᴏᴜ'ᴠᴇ ᴅᴏɴᴇ ᴛᴏ ᴍᴇ.”
Esta não é uma história que romantize o abuso. Esta não é uma história trágica de amor. ( )
