This research paper is an evaluation of the psychological transition in Humbert
Humbert's character - the protagonist of Vladimir Nabokov’s Lolita. Humbert is
initially driven by his obsessive desire for nymphets. His untamed lust results in
the victimization of his stepdaughter. The research attempts to explore the
behavioural and emotional change in Humbert's character. This change is analyzed
with respect to the conflicting emotions of 'desire' and 'remorse' which, according
to Humbert, are the characteristic features of his personality. By establishing the
narcissistic element as the defining factor of Humbert's character, it has been
deduced that he is incapable of remorse.
