It is a love story with the power to raise both chuckles and eyebrows. Humbert Humbert is a European intellectual adrift in America, haunted by memories of a lost adolescent love. When he meets his ideal nymphet in the shape of 12-year-old Dolores Haze, he constructs an elaborate plot to seduce her, but first he must get rid of her mother. In spite of his diabolical wit, reality proves to be more slippery than Humbert's feverish fantasies, and Lolita refuses to conform to his image of the perfect lover.

Vladimir Nabokov - Lolita Originaltitel: Lolita Roman. Rowohlt Verlag 1957 527 Seiten, ISBN: 3499225433 Eigentlich war Humbert Humbert schon als er vom Bahnhof abgeholt wurde der festen Überzeugung, keinen Tag länger als unbedingt notwendig in Ramsdale zu verbringen. Der erste Eindruck von seinem Quartier bestätigt ihn nur darin; doch dann sieht er sie. Dolores Haze, 12 Jahre alt - und ein richtiges Nymphchen. Sie sieht aus wie das Mädchen, das er einst liebte, als er selbst in diesem Alter war - und seither war sein Verlangen nach diesen Kindern, die in ihrer Unschuld doch schon so aufreizend waren, nie mehr erloschen. Eine Gelegenheit wie diese - darauf hatte er ewig gewartet. Ein Kind, so nah, das er ansehen konnte, das ganz unbefangen im Badeanzug, im Schlafanzug vor ihm spielte - und ihn dann doch auch immer wieder mit diesem Blick ansieht - eine himmlische Situation. Wenn nur die Mutter nicht wäre, die immer in den unpassendsten Momenten nach seiner Aufmerksamkeit verlangt. Und die ganz unbewusst in einen Wettstreit mit ihrer Tochter tritt. Doch das Glück ist nicht von langer Dauer. Dann ist Sommer, Ferien - und Dolly muss ins Feriencamp - und er kann es nicht verhindern. Der einzige Weg, Dolly, seiner Lolita, auch weiterhin näher bleiben zu können ist - ihre Mutter zu heiraten. Diese blüht auf, fängt an, das Haus neu einzurichten, zu dekorieren - und findet dabei auch das Tagebuch, das Humbert von Beginn seines Aufenthalts an geführt hat. Abscheulich, was sie darin lesen muss! Nicht nur, dass über sie selbst die widerwärtigsten Ausdrücke zu lesen sind, es ist vor allem kein Zweifel mehr daran möglich, dass Humberts Interesse alleine der Tochter gilt. Aber nie, nie soll er sie wiedersehen! Das ruft sie ihm noch zu - bevor sie aus dem Haus stürmt, um prompt von einem Auto überfahren zu werden.

I must admit that in autumn it is rather rainy there. However, when I bought tickets, I was sure that the weather would be great. I trusted my intuition and it didn't fail me. I looked up at the Triumphal Arc, one of the main symbols of the city, as if asking a blessing from it and opened my map. I was searching for Morskaya street, 47 where famed Russian author Vladimir Nabokov spent the first 18 years of his life. I was a bit surprised that Morskaya quay was situated not in the city center, but on Vasilievsky Island. Fortunately (or unfortunately) I was ambitious enough and obstacles like that did not frighten me.

Vladimir learned a strong work ethic and a love of butterflies from his dad, creative sensibility and innate spirituality from his mom. He spent a happy childhood at the Nabokov estate of Vyra 50 miles south of St. Petersburg. Various governesses taught him to read and write French and English, learning these before Russian. The family had multilingual discussions at the dinner table. A slender but active youth, he bicycled, played tennis and soccer.
