Query: Humbert's Diary
From
Date
Body
EDITOR's NOte. Interesting question.HH is, he says, reconstructing the
diary
so the origina languae might have been French but then Charlotte knows
at least a bit of French.
---------------
Hello,
I'm sorry if everyone apart from me knows the answer to this one
already, but could someone explain
to me why Humbert does not just write his diary in a language Charlotte
Haze doesn't understand?
'Obvious abbreviations' at the beginning of I, 11 suggests in some
obscure way that he is not too
concerned about being found out...
Thanks,
James Womack
