With Excellent and lucid prose, The Enchanter in Nabokov’s own words, is a pre-Lolita novella.
It was the last book he wrote in the Russian language and not being satisfied with the outcome, thought of destroying it and in fact believed it to have been discarded, until years later a single copy was found among his other manuscripts.
Eventually the manuscript was translated by his son and published posthumously.

Dopo frasi come: "Pregustare la ragazzina era come sentire la cocaina fondersi nei suoi lombi" e "Successo del cesso", non so se ho letto un libro di Nabokov o una canzone trap tra cocaina, sesso e successo postumo dopo aver fatto una vita di merda. Comunque, è trap bro.

The story that eventually led to Nabokov's classic tale about one Dolores Haze aka Lolita. Perverse, passionate, funny, and extremely well-written-- not to mention some of the most crude things said in the most delicate language-- it has all the markings of a Nabokov.
