LOLITA - Penguin **New Edition**

Humbert Humbert, a European intellectual adrift in America, is a middle-aged college professor. Haunted by memories of a lost adolescent love, he falls outrageously (and eventually illegally) in lust with his landlady's twelve-year-old daughter, Dolores Haze. Obsessed, he'll do anything, will commit any crime, to possess his Lolita.

But once Lolita belongs to Humbert, once he has got what he wants, what next?
And what of Lolita? How long is she willing to be possessed?
