Possible Source for Nabokov's 'Lolita'

April 25, 2004

Professor Michael Maar has unearthed an obscure 1916
short story published in German called "Lolita." It
tells of a middle-aged man's fixation with a young
girl. Scholars are now left to debate what it might
mean if Vladimir Nabokov -- author of the later novel
Lolita -- knew of the story. NPR's Liane Hansen talks
with Maar.
