I'm reading lolita right now and although good, it's hard for me to read. Is there a more modern English version of the story that still keeps the passion of the original?

I am, I apologize. The book was written 60 years ago, your question seems absurd to me.
I thought it would be but i did see a few other semi-recent versions of it online and thought that maybe they would less annoying to read.
Mate you shouldn't be reading modern English ''''''''translations'''''''' of Chaucer or Shakespeare, never mind Nabokov.
Hopefully you're ESL
The absolute state of zoomers
Why are there so many ESL posters on Yea Forums? Does it explain the hatred of Shakespeare and "Anglos"?
English literature is boring as fuck and always about some whiny little sissy boy crying about feeling bad throughout their novels. No thanks.
This is your brain on "anime tiddies".
Pornography rots the fucking mind.
Imagine overdoing it so much that you cannot even muster the wherewithal to get out a fucking dictionary.

American realistic scifi.
While im at it I'll pull out google translate for when he starts quotes another language.
You don't need to understand the French but it's pretty fucking easy to work out what it means anyway and I don't even speak a Romance language

RIP
Have you ever read the book? He puts things in different languages in the story as well.
>tfw can understand 80% of latin when authors put latin in their books

I'm already about 1/3 way through, it's just a pain in the ass. Definitely a good story so far.
don't sweat details so much. absorb what you can and just get a feel from everything else. that book is lyrical as fuck. you've got it boss
