OH LOLITA




Some of my personal favorites from the collection of cover designs for Nabokov's Lolita. While I wasn't a huge fan of the novel - understandably, I found the material a little rough to get through at times - it's fascinating to see how designers throughout time and place have approached the cover to the infamous book with designs as varied as readers' reactions to the novel.

Which cover do you find most appropriate for Lolita? Any thoughts on how the content of the novel should be translated onto the cover?
