Humbert Humbert is an amazing protagonist. He’s fun, he’s wacky, he’s witty, and of course yes, he is a monster.
People are able to read and appreciate Paradise Lost, Grendel, and heck, the Bible, all of which have protagonists that do evil things but present themselves as the victims. (Actually, it’s been a while on Grendel, that one might have genuinely portrayed Grendel as innocent.)
