Lolita
by Vladimir Nabokov (1954)
"She wore that day a pretty print dress that I had seen on her once before,
ample in the skirt,tight in the bodice, short-sleeved, pink checkered
with darker pink, and, to complete the color scheme, she had painted her
lips and was holding in her hollowed hands a beautiful, banal, Eden-red
apple."
We all know that apples that are "Eden red" can
only lead to trouble.
