lit.

11. Good Literature.

"Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Lo-lee-ta: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. Lo. Lee. Ta."

For those who know me, I am rather a nerd, especially when it comes to movies and literature. My most recent read was Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov. I finally finished it yesterday; for some reason this one took me a while to get through. Nevertheless, I loved it.

"Oh Lolita, you are my girl, as Vee was Poe's and Bea Dante's."
