Imam Al maldie — I have been into memoirs lately and this is the best one I have found. This tale of a white woman growing up in rural Africa and the struggles her family endured amongst one another and because of the environment were fascinating.

Andrew Richardson amr_design — This may be just my views but I was not a fan of this book. I had to read it the summer before my freshman year for IB. Maybe that was what ruined it for me. I had reread the first paragraph/page at least 17 times.

Yes, the content is disturbing and occasionally brutally uncomfortable to read, but I'd be lying if I said I could look away. I couldn't. "And I shall be dumped where the weed decays, and the rest is rust and stardust". (p. 292) In fact, more than a handful of times I found myself rereading whole paragraphs, sometimes pages, two, three or even four times. Such is the absolute beauty of Nabokov's use of the english language. Never before have I read a book so gorgeously written, so witty, so breathtakingly lyrical. Midway through I started to mark pages containing a particularly striking quote with mini post-it notes. "A shipwreck. An atoll. Alone with a drowned passenger's shivering child. Darling, this is only a game!" (p. 19) Certainly I'll be rereading this again many times over, not only to study Humbert Humbert's tragic affection for nymphet Lolita, but primarily to linger over Nabokov's majestic prose. As an aspiring author it makes me slightly distressed to know I'll never paint a novel even 1/1000 as eloquently as this.
