Shit I'd have loved to have read that book at school...we did Wuthering Heights and Hamlet (among others)....good stories but very, very booooooring)

I've posted this elsewhere but the important thing to remember with books like these are that they are classics for a reason and a closer reading of the text can make them quite rewarding.
