books are so amazing. have i mentioned that?
i think if i could marry a book it would be slaughterhouse 5, but we'd probably divorce quickly, but it'd still be the love of my life.
ANYWAY. am reading lolita right? and there's this part that i just love.
so he's in lust with this 12 year old girl right (he's like 30 or something) and he married her mother to stay close to her but her mother died and so he takes away from this camp she's at and they go from hotel to hotel. he has these sleeping pills and he gives her some so he can knock her out and have his way with her. and this is the part where he's trying to see if she's knock out enough for him to touch her up.
'Please reader: no matter your exasperation with the tenderhearted, morbidly sensitive, infinately circumspect hero of my book, do not skip these essential pages! Imagine me; I shall not exist if you do not imagine me; try to discern the doe in me, trembling in the forest of my own iniquity; let's even smile a little. After all, there is no harm in smiling'.
I LOVE IT.
'In the gay town of Lepingville I bought her four books of comics, a box of candy, a box of sanitary pads, two cokes, a manicure set, a travel clock with a luminous dial, a ring with a real topaz, a tennis racker, roller skates with white high shoes, field glasses, a portable radio set, chewing gum, s transparent raincoat, sunglasses, some more garments - swooners, shorts, all kinds of summer frocks. At the hotel we had separate rooms, but in the middle of the night she came sobbing into mine and we made it up very gently. You see, she had absolutely nowhere else to go.'
but i have one more.
'So it goes.'
