More of the same

About 1/4 way through the novel now, and I still can't figure out why this book is so high up on so many lists.  Nabokov did have a wonderful vocabulary and an excellent writing style, but the subject matter is just SOOO distasteful (at least so far) that I can't see the draw.  I think I'll look up some criticism on the book and try to get a better handle on it.
