Still reading through Lolita, and for some reason i have to stop, and start again on certain parts of the novel. I get so into reading the words that Nabokov has written and then i begin to lose myself in the words, and after that.. well i dont know where i am in the story and what is going on. so nedless to say, im stil getting through the novel. There is something so captivating in the way that Nabokov writes. there seems to be secret meanings in ALL he is writing and i think that is why i am having a hard time getting through it! every time i think a word has a special meaning behind it, or that a whole scene means something new, thats when i have to step back and read through it again.... it is as if i am reading the first book ive ever read, which is obviously not the case! but in class we sit and talk about all the things that we have discovered and then listening to how Sexson explains all the things that us readers have missed, i think i start to second guess myself in how i am reading it... ok, imjust confusing myself... but i have been ever since i started reading nabokov so nothing new there!
