π Just finished listening to "Lolita" on Audible and I'm absolutely captivated! π²
This unabridged audiobook by Vladimir Nabokov, narrated by the incredible Jeremy Irons, takes you on a journey through the most famous and controversial novel of the 20th century. π§

Humbert Humbert's obsessive and doomed passion for the nymphet Dolores Haze is portrayed in a way that's both humorous and horrifying. π€― As "The New Yorker" says, the conjunction of humor and horror results in satire of an exceptional kind.
Awe, exhilaration, heartbreak, and mordant wit abound in "Lolita." It's the story of the aging Humbert Humbert's obsession with Dolores Haze, as well as a fascinating exploration of the clash between hypercivilized Europe and the cheerful barbarism of postwar America. ππΊπΈ
But above all, it's a meditation on love, in all its forms – from outrage to hallucination, madness, and transformation. ππ«
If you're looking for a thought-provoking and brilliantly narrated audiobook, I highly recommend giving "Lolita" a listen. π #Lolita #Audible #VladimirNabokov #JeremyIrons #Audiobook #MustListen #LoveAndMadness
