Lolita. His best masterpiece. I say that because I think he has several masterpieces. Buy the annotated edition, as the literary, cultural, and other illusions throughout the book are simply astounding. Plus, as a librarian, you should know how to address the dweebs who think the book is some kind of pedo porn.

After those two,
Transparent Things, to see if you understand it any better than I do.
