Awe and exhiliration--along with heartbreak and mordant wit--abound in u003cbu003eLolitau003c/bu003e, Nabokov's most famous and controversial novel, which tells the story of the aging Humbert Humbert's obsessive, devouring, and doomed passion for the nymphet Dolores Haze. u003cbu003eLolitau003c/bu003e is also the story of a hypercivilized European colliding with the cheerful barbarism of postwar America. Most of all, it is a meditation on love--love as outrage and hallucination, madness and transformation.
