Description
Actor James Mason masterfully reads the witty, poetic prose as his rolling British tongue humorously renders Nabokov's characters and settings in colorful three-dimension. Originally a tough sell to publishers because of its racy theme, Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita is now recognized as a twentieth-century classic. The story of a middle-aged man's overpowering desire for his pubescent step-daughter, Lolita somehow transcends its own eroticism and is, finally, one of the greatest love stories of all time.
