Written to sell, and not in a good way. So average it was insulting, the book lacks a compelling creative force and relies on insipid, cliche scenarios without the meat of literary craft that could have elevated it to something awesome. I can do weird, experimental prose (none of the POV or dialogue changes really bothered me), and I understand what the author was going for, but was it successful? What did it add, exactly? Overall, this is an artistically shallow, boring, and unremarkable contemporary overhaul of a classic that did not need redoing.
If you want a visceral read about bad mother/daughter relationships and groomed girls, just stick to Lolita, my god!!!… (altro)
