I was gonna give this book 4 stars, but this sentence alone made it a 5-star:
"I stood listening to that musical vibration from my lofty slope, to those flashes of separate cries with a kind of demure murmur for back-
ground, and then I knew that the hopelessly poignant thing
was not Lolita's absence from my side, but the absence of her
voice from that concord. "
