Brave New World
was actually better than I expected it be. It is written in a really outdated style, but I can see parts of it as still being relevant today.
And yeah, I'm a fan of the old-fashioned Victorian Lolita style - none of that new gothic or sweet Lolita crap. =P But it all stems from Vladimir Nabokov's book
Lolita
, about a man who marries his landlady in order to be closer to her fourteen-year-old daughter, which is what the movie is also about. I still haven't read the book, but it's controversial, for obvious reasons. The phrase and style basically refer to a young girl who is sexually attractive.
