To the List,
In his recently published Literature and the Gods Roberto Calasso (Ruins of Kash, Marriage of Cadmus and Harmony) has a lovely passage on Nabokov 's Lolita ( "the most recent, majestic, and dazzling celebration of the Nymph") in the chapter "Mental Waters."
Like his other works, this one astonishes and delights.
