The chapter aims to highlight Humbert Humbert’s ongoing endeavor to conceptualize America as a site of imagination, filled with imaginary or metaphoric spaces. His journeys are mentally envisioned and rehearsed as cognitive maps within his mind. To substantiate this argument, the examination of these mental maps will be grounded in the theoretical perspectives put forth by behavior geographers. Consequently, I will delve into the exploration of the formation of these maps in the novel, analyzing the subjective aspects involved in the protagonist’s mapmaking processes.
