What should I read after Lolita?

Laughter in the dark is a great book to read right after Lolita. It is one of Nabokov’ earliest novels and engages similar themes as Lolita, but with much less literary flair. You can see how Nabokov develops as a writer over his career when you read these two books as companion pieces to each other.

Why is Lolita considered one of the best books?

Fans of the book say the racy nature of the plot is secondary to the true art of the words. It’s written in the voice of a man driven to murder by his urge to love and control the young girl. Nabokov’s prose alone can seduce readers into seeing the man’s otherwise outrageous and criminal point of view.

Why should people read Lolita?

People enjoy reading Lolita because it’s stylistically a great novel with strong character development and clashes between these characters. It shows deep psychological insight and leaves the reader issues to think about.
