In this episode, we cover Vladimir Nabokov's infamous novel “Lolita”. According to Vanity Fair, this book is considered to be “the only convincing love story of this century.” The novel is famous for its controversial subject: pedophilia. Humbert Humbert, the novel’s unreliable narrator and protagonist is obsessed with nymphets - specifically 12-year-old Dolores Haze, whom he nicknames Lolita. Join us as we discuss the importance of this novel and why you shouldn’t turn your nose up at it just because of its delicate plot.
