12 minute audio (CD) of MAC voice Fred speaking Nabakov's Lolita text , sections 1,3 and 4. The selected text closes with this passage:
"I recall the scent of some kind of toilet powder. I believe she stole it from her mother's Spanish maid. A sweetish, lowly, musky perfume. It mingled with her own biscuity odour, and my senses were suddenly filled to the brim; a sudden commotion in a nearby bush prevented them from over-flowing, and as we drew away from each other, and with aching veins attended to what was probably a prowling cat, there came from the house her mother's voice calling her, with a rising frantic note. And Dr. Cooper ponderously limped out into the garden. But that mimosa grove, the haze of stars, the tingle, the flame, the honeydew, and the ache remained with me, and that little girl with her sea-side limbs and ardent tongue haunted me ever since. Until at last, twenty-four years later I broke her spell, by incarnating her in another."

12 minute audio (CD) of MAC voice Fred speaking Nabakov's Lolita text , sections 1,3 and 4. The selected text closes with this passage:
"I recall the scent of some kind of toilet powder. I believe she stole it from her mother's Spanish maid. A sweetish, lowly, musky perfume. It mingled with her own biscuity odour, and my senses were suddenly filled to the brim; a sudden commotion in a nearby bush prevented them from over-flowing, and as we drew away from each other, and with aching veins attended to what was probably a prowling cat, there came from the house her mother's voice calling her, with a rising frantic note. And Dr. Cooper ponderously limped out into the garden. But that mimosa grove, the haze of stars, the tingle, the flame, the honeydew, and the ache remained with me, and that little girl with her sea-side limbs and ardent tongue haunted me ever since. Until at last, twenty-four years later I broke her spell, by incarnating her in another."
