I can't decide whether or not to reccommend this book. I absolutely could not put this book down, was hypnotised and fascinated by it, moved and disgusted, sickened and touched. If Lolita scared you, don't go there. But if you were mesmerized by Humbert's perversity and sickness, you may be able to make it to the grisly end. Good luck, and thank you, A.M.
