Initial Research Question 10/2

Post on your "topic," but with a special focus on the end of part one, Humbert's meeting with Lolita at the camp, their subsequent drive, their experience at the Enchanted Hunter, and their continued journey after. Look for specific examples of the theme on which you're focusing.

Why does Nabokov choose to have Humbert care about how they view his fetish? This motif repeats itself through out the entire novel, why is it important? What affect does this have on the reader's opinion on Humbert? Does Humbert actually believe in his delusional justifications or is it an act to try to get a lesser sentence?
