Wow. I really need to brush up on classic literature. One of the things that always made me sad was that my high school had a kind of slacker english department. We'd read two books each summer (for honors and AP) and then maybe 2 or 3 books and possibly 1 play per year. That was it--I talk to other people, and they definitely had to read a lot more classics. I keep saying I should read some myself, but I don't even know where to start.
