I actually liked “Catcher In the Rye”. The one that killed me was “Silas Marner”. The only thing I remember learning from that is the difference between “Petite Mal” and “Grand Mal” seizures.
Someone once said something to the effect that in “Russian literature the boy neither wants the girl, nor gets the girl,” but somehow the author gets 1500 pages out of this.

Reminds me of Woody Allen: “I took a speed-reading course and read War and Peace in twenty minutes. It involves Russia.”
