Humbert Humbert of Lolita and James Gatsby of The Great Gatsby

At first glance it may be difficult to compare the two main characters, The Great Gatsby 's James Gatsby and Lolita' s Humbert Humbert. Gatsby is a tragic story about self-creator who built his own empire for women who always love him. On the other hand, Humbert Humbert is a sensible perpetrator who likes vulgar nymphs, Lolita. But these two are very similar in important points. Both Gatsby and Umbert idealized their childhood experience and idealization has become an obsession which is the driving force of their lives.

Russian American novelist Vladimir Nabokov made a novel "Lolita" in 1955. The book is spoken by a middle-aged man named Humores Humbert who talks about her obsession with her 12 year old girl named Dolores Haz (Lolita) and her sexual relationship. . He forced him to enter. In this novel, Dolores eventually escaped the emotional collapse of Humbert. Over time, when they saw each other, Dolores was pregnant, but despite her difficult situation economically suffered, but she overcame the past and herself I made a living for. A better future

As mentioned above, the narrator of the novel "Lolita" is Humbert and his hero is "Lolita". Lombert's desire for the donkey has created the power of the novel. All other protagonists, including Dolores, are defined according to understanding his goal, ie intimacy. Thus, Dolores became synonymous with "Lolita", reflecting the sensibility Umbird wanted, Dolores' mother became a barrier that Umberto had to overcome in order to enter Dolores Lolita. As Humbert revealed his feelings and his intentions, readers who witnessed his inner dialogue were unintentionally involved in the violation but committed.

In the story of Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita, Umberto Umbert fell in love with Lolita Has, and the novel expressed his life at Lolita All emotions and behaviors, thoughts and desires. However, I could not get an answer as to whether she fell in love with his question. The reader heard only the emotions of Lolita and her Embert 's eyes and Nabokov' s words, but Lolita treated him like him, but she was in a world other than Humbert. Being alone is easy to confuse as a woman. Love and women are confined. Lolita lacks self-expression in her novel and she wants to live together outside of their lives when she wants to participate in drama at her age. When people go out to play together, swearing and dominating Humbert Humbert at this stage of her life means that she can not leave and she is his slave to him.
