I remember it being weird but there were definitely worse books in other years. Shakespeare - A Midsummer night's dream, Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth (thank goodness for Sparknotes) To Kill A Mockingbird - Harper Lee (I enjoyed) Lord of the Flies - William Golding (Probably my favourite out of all of them) The Glass Menagerie - Tennessee Williams (I don't remember a whole lot but I don't think it was that bad) Agamemnon - Aeschylus (meh) Dune - Frank Herbert (Way too long for high school English. I don't think I read it fully) White Noise - Don DeLillo (Horrible book. There is no plot until the 21st chapter and it is all just absurd garbage) Had to read a lot of other ridiculous books in French for high school too... Permalink 2
