"Lolita" by Vladimir Nabokov not only made a splash among the writer's contemporaries - it still remains one of the most popular novels in the world. However, few people know that the plot of the book is largely inspired by the story of the abduction of Sally Horner, an eleven-year-old girl whom Nabokov learned about from the newspapers. Sarah Weinman, journalist and editor of CrimeReads, sheds light on Horner's tragic fate for the first time since the 1950s and describes the circumstances in which Nabokov's acclaimed novel was written."The true life of Lolita," relying on court documents, the memoirs of Horner's relatives, previously unpublished FBI materials and testimonies of Nabokov's relatives, makes us look at the plot known to everyone from a new perspective - and think about how the artistic display of real events can affect our perception of the crime.
