I sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo agree with you. But you're brave, having it at least picked up like that with an expectation as towards the author's skill. We were forced to read it in school. I think that was the worst mark I ever got in a German test because I couldn't be bothered to read the damned thing. Anna Karenina was so much more interesting.
