Re Landon Y. Jones delightful Travel article in the May 24 issue , "On the Trail of Nabokov in the American West," he errs in writing that Lolita was first published in England in 1955. It was first published in Paris by the Olympia Press in 1955.

"For the last 1 5 years my wife, Sarah, and I have driven every summer with our golden retriever from New Jersey to the Northern Rockies. I used to say that I felt like Humbert Humbert, the notoriously unreliable narrator of “Lolita,” who made a similar trip, but instead of traveling with a precocious preteen girl, I was traveling with a wife and a dewy-eyed dog."
