Books don't want to be commented on, they want to be read. The famous phonetic syllable "lo.li.ta" is also a perfect mental image of an immeasurable book. Lolita, the one we all think of when pronouncing this name, is spelled with three painful syllables. Lolita, diminutive of Dolores, is pronounced with painful sensuality and closes energetically and occlusively. Lo.li.ta is both signifier and meaning, a sonority with great capacity to offer images: innocence, object beauty and degradation.
