Literally spent three years trying to find this book and (again) it was worth it. This 100% should be the Nabokov book that gets all the hype, and we are fake for not making that happen.

Albinus - rich, married middle-aged and respectable - is an art critic and aspiring filmmaker who lusts after the coquettish young cinema usherette Margot. Gradually he seduces her and convinces himself he is irresistible to her, but Margot has other plans. She wants to be a film star, and when Albinus introduces her to the American movie producer Axel Rex, she sees her chance - and plotting, duplicity and tragedy ensue.

La jeune Magda de Chambre obscure préfigure déjà l'illustre Lolita. Femme-enfant à la fois destructrice et insignifiante, elle entre dans la vie de son amant, respectable bourgeois, pour sa joie et pour son malheur. On ne peut suivre que fasciné ce lent glissement vers l'enfer d'un homme possédé par l'amour impossible.
