This blog is all about the books we're reading, what events are happening, and how you can get involved.

 

There is something about paper that commands trust. And reading is very personal. A bonfire of books used to make us cringe because it represented the destruction of that trustworthy bond.

My Lolita

reamofmargaret:

Those words are in my insides,

trying to burst out like a thousand hogs.

Ready to trample the do-gooder

who unlocked the door to the slaughterhouse.                                                                           

That delicate lexis of yours

makes me want to

touch Lo, torture Lo.

Re-consider what’s moral,

and look twice at the girl’s swollen knees.                                                                           

It’s a horror scene-

Blood in the meadowlands.

And all your darling Lolita can say

is that a pair of the cadaver’s moccasins

will be necessary for your trip

through the continental divide.                                                                                                    

She talks of musicals, of boys, of camps,

of a world that you cannot stand to enter,

but I know intimately.

She’s repulsive. Delightful.                                                                                                    

Pages of explanation, Nabokov,

and I’m there.

Ready to taste Lolita.

Ready to murder you.

All the secrets of the world are contained in books. Read at your own risk.
