VIRTUAL & IN-PERSON MEETING

Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov

Humbert Humbert has fallen in love with Dolores Haze, his landlady's 12-year-old daughter. He reluctantly agrees to marry Mrs. Haze to be close to Lolita, but when Lolita starts looking for attention elsewhere, he takes her on a desperate cross-country misadventure in the name of love. Nabokov’s most famous and controversial novel was named one of the Great American Novels of the 20th century by The Atlantic.

Moderated by Readers Advisory Librarian Cindy Haiken. For details about meeting virtually or in-person, contact Cindy at chaiken@wallingfordlibrary.org.
