Lolita, a controversial and highly influential novel by Vladimir Nabokov, tells the story of Humbert Humbert, a middle-aged literature professor who becomes infatuated with a twelve-year-old girl named Dolores Haze, whom he nicknames Lolita. Set in the 1950s America, the novel is a complex exploration of obsession, manipulation, and the consequences of unchecked desires.
