What a change of perspective! The story of "1984" told by Julia and "Lolita" told by the now grown-up Dolores Haze instead of the paedophile Humbert Humbert.

• "Julia: A Novel" by Sandra Newman (org. in English, translated into Dutch, German...)

• "Bye Bye Lolita" by Lea Ruckpaul (German only)

Trigger warning: "Julia" is like "1984" very dystopian. "Bye bye Lolita" contains details of sexual abuse.

@SonjaS ...ook best heftig. De perspectiefwissel werd me trouwens pas echt bewust toen de boeken naast elkaar in mijn boekenkast stonden.

Nu lees ik even een ander boek tussendoor, omdat ik behoefte heb aan iets empowerends.
