Regarding the notion that Nabokov's "publishing in Playboy lent
support to the idea that child abuse by an aesthete is sophisticated and trendy": One might just as well imply that Nabokov's creation of Lolita was driven by his own fondness for little girls as sexual partners, as Hunter S. Thompson did in interviews with Rolling Stone.
