Well, I have amused myself by reading it.  I think it speaks something about society.  I've never read anything particularly funny, usually the tired old ditties starting out with "Here I sit all broken-hearted tried to s--t but only f----d.  Not particularly funny or ingenious rhyme.

I think that they should be read. Granted, yes, some of the scenes are a bit "racy" but they are great works of literature. But they are accurate as far as human actions go (though Romeo and Juliet were just stupid in my opinion) Anyone who has not read any Shakespeare will be missing out. He was a uniquely clever genius of comedic relief, irony, and double meanings.

Do your own homework.  They're both excellent stories... reading them will be enjoyable.  I'm partial to Bierce myself.

I haven't heard of this particular book, but this past summer I had the pleasure of reading "Twitch and Shout: A Touretter's Tale" by Lowell Handler.\n\nIt's Handler's memoir of a trip looking for people as unique as himself. It's not destined to be a classic, but it sounds like you might find it interesting.

You can do the stop and think method.  As you read stop and think.  You can stop and ask yourself a questions about what you read, try to relate to the text, etc.

Yep - I read it in high school and it was hilarious... Sad about the author though, I think the book my have been semi-autobiographical. It was one of only a handful of required reading in high school that I didn't hate: Catcher in the Rye, Caine Mutiny, and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest are the only others I can recall that I didn't hate reading.

Start off with The Guns of August by Barbara Tuchman.  Read 1914 by Solzhenitzyn, 3 Soldiers by John Dos Passos, All Quiet on the Western Front, The Grand Illusion,( film ), Paths of Glory ( book ), A Farewell to Arms, by Hemmingway, That can get you started.  Look up the poets, Wilfred Owens and Siegfired Sasoon. And you might want to read The Sever Pillars of Wisdom, ( by T E Lawrence , the lawreance of Arabia ) .This is the makings of a fine syllabus.
