I HATE THIS GOD DAMNED BOOK.
Not only was it horrible that it was regarded as classic literature in my class, I had to write upwards to 5 papers on it, this book is excessively pretentious, overly wordy, too vague to capture any real meaning, and the author half the time appeared as if he were trying to impress an English professor by using all of the words he can find in a thesaurus. |
