#1 The 1997 film adaptation of Lolita centres around the romance between middle-aged professor Humbert Humbert and a (very, very) young girl named Dolores Haze. Taking place in 1947, the story starts when Humbert, a French literature professor, begins living with the recently widowed Charlotte Haze. Being attracted to young girls his whole life, Humbert marries Charlotte to be around her daughter Dolores, who he calls “Lo”. Humbert and Lo then proceed to run away and go on a sex-filled motel hopping

delightful to the authors, just like some scenes in Lolita are dear to him. After he processed to describe these moments, Nabokov starts talking about how readers often misjudge his works, don’t understand the real meaning of it, give it more credit even though it is simple a fictional novel, or even diagnose him with depression and such based on the novel. He finally ends with vaguely telling people of what is was like to write a book like Lolita in English. 2. Identify metaphors and discuss their

Lolita uses irony to insults him. Lolita lies in her communication with Humbert. She mocks his attempts to be romantic, his phony rationalizations, and his speech habits. Her insults are cruel, she refers to Humbert as a "rapist," a "brute," and a "crook." Her insulting is the most painful for Humbert. Humbert and Lolita spend their time to arguing.

Less Than Zero contains many of these activities and more in a fast-paced, fictional autobiography about the life of a wealthy, college boy during his winter break. This novel shows how life is like growing up as a wealthy teenager in the 1980’s with

Dolores Haze, or as we know her, Lolita, is what known as a nymphet. A nymphet is an “attractive and sexually mature young girl.” Nymphets are what Humbert Humbert desires and wants control over. Through artful alliteration, Vladimir Nabokov disguises the power struggle of sex and love and abuse between a twelve-year-old girl and forty-year-old man. In this essay, I will analyze the ways that Humbert Humbert uses his agency to control Dolores Haze and how she uses what little agency she has to control

As Humbert claims in the story that he toyed with the doctors and nurses when he was institutionalized, he toys with us, the readers, and makes very convincing arguments for our sympathies. His nature is very controlling, mocking and delusional as it appears through his lyrical narration. While he does this, many readers
