I just got past page 120, where HH is in a hotel with Lolita. He's close to accomplishing what he's been scheming to get for the longest time. And it seems the closer he is to actually obtaining it, the further away he slips from reality.
At page 129, he writes directly to the reader saying "do not skip these essential pages! Imagine me; I shall not exist if you do not imagine me;"
Then, on page 131, he's next to Lolita who is asleep.
"A breeze from wonderland had begun to affect my thoughts."
It's a line straight out of a Toni Morrison, or Gabriel Garcia Marguez book.
Then, a little further down on page 131, HH observers how Lolita, still asleep "would stir, and I would konw she was farther away from me than ever."
Ladies and gentlemen, HH has left the building (of reality).
