The afterword ("On a book entitled Lolita") includes the following just
before the "nerves of the novel":
"I have not re-read Lolita since I went through the proofs in
the winter of 1954 but I find it to be a delightful presence now that
it quietly hangs about the house like a summer day which one knows to
be bright behind the haze."
Not exactly what you were after, I know.
Nick.

I try to find where (in what interview) Nabokov says that since 1958
he has been supported by a little girl named Lolita.
Could anyone help?
Thanks!
