Lolita is a remarkable book which is written from the point of view of the narrator, Humbert Humbert, who is frequently described as "unreliable." This is an understatement. While the book concerns the narrator's obsession with the title character, who he first meets when she is 12 and ends when she is 17, it is so much more a work of literature about Humbert's psychological condition than being one about pedophilia. I completely agree with NGTTwo's comment that it is not graphic in its consideration of an arguably erotic subject. I also agree that it is definitely worth reading.
