Benefit from reading great literature about some of life's most important issues.
I hear people say that they haven't read the Classics for numerous reasons:
- "I'm too busy"
- "The story seems confusing"
- "The book is REALLY long"
Other people have read the books and say:
- "I didn't really get it."
- "I liked the story, but I'm not sure about the themes."
- "I didn't understand what was happening because the language was difficult.
