What did I buy at the bookstore? Don't gasp at the fact that I haven't read these yet - "Uncle Tom's Cabin" and "Catcher in the Rye".
okay, i want you to know that a professor of mine once called me "the only person ever to get a degree without cracking a book." and when i was in highschool, we were supposed to read Huck Finn. i didn't. we took a trip to NYC and i saw the broadway play, Big River. did my report off that and got an A. i haven't read hardly any of the classics, nor have i seen any of the classic movies. you name it, i haven't seen it. seriously. my husband loves to befuddle himself with this. so you get no laughs from me. and i hope you don't think any less of me now that you know i'm so un-well read!
ReplyDeleteIf you also give up redaing the news and blogs, someday you too can become the president. (LOL)
ReplyDeleteNo, I don't think any less of you. Smart is smart.
thank ya!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read much in the category of "classics" either (unless JAWS counts).
ReplyDeleteI have read the bible. That's considered rather classic I believe.
I'm more impressed with people that read something and then actually understand it. We're talkin' themes, motifs, metanarrative, blahzeeblah. I'm not a lit. snob, I swear but if you want to discuss a book don't tell me what it said (if I read it I already know), tell me what it meant to you. Discuss, don't parrot.
