What age is suitable to read Lolita?

I turn 17 in a few months and I don't have a teacher/librarian who has read the book themselves to ask. But around what *reading* maturity level would be good to tackle the book?

----

Btw I know it's a heavy story and I also know the narrator is "unreliable" giving the book more challenge to read. I started reading books with those complexes at 15, so i'm not very worried about that.

    I think 17 is old enough to read it.

    while you're on your midsection young ones, it may be completely desirable to make certain. while it became revealed, young ones led a lot extra sheltered lives, yet with the stuff it truly is on television on the instant, the scandals that ricochet out of Hollywood, the political shenanigans etc.etc.etc. there is in all probability no longer something in Lolita which you haven't any longer already heard approximately.
