50 Famous ‘Literary Masterpieces’ That Actually Suck

20. Ulysses. I know a lot of it is cultural stuff that made sense back in the early 20th century when Joyce wrote it and that if I tried to understand its a masterpiece, but I just can’t get into it.

21. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. We had to read it my junior year of high school, and I just could not get through it. We had to do an essay on it, and I just wrote about how I didn’t like it, why I didn’t like it, and how I can see how people can enjoy it, it just wasn’t enjoyable for me. My teacher loved my paper.
