I read a lot of books, most of which I never think about after moving on to the next book. But Lolita haunted me after reading it at the end of last year, although I'm not sure why. This thread has acted as an exorcist for which I'm grateful. I was tired of having Humbert and sad young Dolores stuck in my head.
I've really appreciated all the thoughtful comments.
