Beowulf sucks. Next?

Hallo, ishtat

Since we're talking about classics that suck, Great Ex springs immediately to mind.

Dickens, ick.

This could be the first time I've disagreed with you!

I adored Great Expectations.

I was disapointed by the movie but I did love the bitchy Stella. I was in a bad place. I idolized her.

There, I will agree, no. But I think that the best things all take work. It's more accessible to most people, I would argue, than Eliot's "The Wasteland" - yet each repays immensely and many-fold the effort required to develop a stronger understanding.

Since you mentioned it- Let's talk about "The Wasteland" please- I'm having a hell of a time getting through this one.
