    Lolita is in contention with Dickens' Hard Times as my all time favorite novel.

    Whilst Lolita is a great novel. It's far from the greatest of all time. Mr Joyce would like to have a little word in your ear before you go giving it that crown!

    That book was ok. Humbert was disturbingly charming. He reminds me of someone I know.

    I as well have only seen the films. I liked them very much! The movie points out how he came to love her innocence in vast contrast to her mothers baudyness. I'd like to read the book if i ever come across it!
