Nearly every time someone brings up a book that "every American had to read for school," it's a book I've never heard of, let alone had to read for school. I figured this was another book like The Giver that came along a bit to late to have made it into the curriculum before I had already passed through the right grade levels, but nope, this came out a dozen years before I was born and I've never, ever heard of it or this author. The Great Gatsby is the only "everybody read it in school" book I can think of that I didn't read in school but have still heard of.

Maybe my teachers just made unusual choices in books. Did y'all have to read One Hundred Years of Solitude? That was fun.

Ha, I actually read this thread hoping there would be someone else who'd never heard of the book even though we've supposedly all read it. I've seen enough discrepancy in books read as part of a school curriculum just in different parts of my state to assume that there's anything every American had to read in school, though.

I'm pretty sure at least some of my teachers had unusual book choices, too. I doubt there are that many who had to read Agatha Christie for school.
