Vladimir Nabokov discusses "Lolita" Part 1 of 2



I will not forget the thought of the monkey as I am reading through the novel.... but one of the funniest parts of this video is when they move from the table to the couch. I laughed out loud at that because, perhaps I missed them say something, but it was like they all of a sudden wanted to become more intimate with their conversation, they all knew hat was going on, and just stood up and walked to the couch. How very funny and perhaps important to the whole video.... let me know what you think of it in comments, or if I should post the second part on the blog? :)

    I love this! You're right that it's hysterical when they move to the couch...how bizarre.
    I had to go back to make sure I heard right - I love that he says his only goal is to produce a "sob in the spine" of the reader.
    Yes, definitely post the next installment.
