I would also like to tackle Lolita again, possibly through an annotated text, but I have a particular focus: I am uneasy with narrator unreliability. The difficulty I have with it is that you can use it almost anywhere to justify anything. Star Wars and Superman? Perhaps there are two Kansas farmboys named Luke and Clark next to one another in an asylum, living out their fantasies, and all we see is the fantasy they choose to relate. You can begin to cram all kinds of unlikely conclusions into places once you bring up the idea that the author is not being entirely faithful in relaying what has transpired to the text. As such, I would love to see if anyone has covered Lolita pointing out "Oh, but over here he said something completely different," because the bulk of the N.U. focus I have seen approaches the topic from the axiomatically assumed lack of culpability of Lolita herself; Humbert must be lying because otherwise she is complicit in this part over here. I would rather see contradictions within the text, but I haven't found anything with that kind of focus.
