I am struggling to understand why everyone is so excited about Lolita. This novel disturbs me and therefore it is not an enjoyable reading experience for me. Every time Humbert Humber talks about Lolita I envision my baby sister, who is 8 years old, being pursued by middle-aged man who can't make with women his own age so he prays on young girls. Quite frankly, I am repulsed by this novel which makes it hard to want to keep reading, but I plan to finish the novel despite my disgust.
