[Berlin, March 22, 2004] 
Lolita, the story of a temptress whose seduction of an older man caused a sensation
when published by Vladimir Nabokov


Is it not disgraceful that this is still how the book is described? How much more perceptive were Vera Nabokov, and Azar Nafisi and her students in "Reading Lolita in Tehran".
