Re: Tell us that one literary classic novel you hate...

I had to read L’Étranger and take an oral exam on it as part of some advanced IB French requirement, and I HATED the book and its main character. I utterly sucked at French (it's a miracle I even passed the advance level at all) so having to read a book I found so unlikable made dealing with the language that much harder. If he were a real person, I guess the main character might be clinically depressed, or something, but as a fictional character I wanted to beat him over the head. I don't have a lot of patience for that kind of emotionally detached, life is meaningless, the universe is indifferent, it's absurd to even bother with anything attitude. Yes, the universe is indifferent. Get over it and find something constructive to do with your time.

Ha ha ha! Oh man, I really needed this 20 years ago.

I guess for me, personally, I don't see why life being inherently absurd and meaningless is a problem when I can create my own meaning, and why "evading the problem" is an issue when the "problem" has no solution.
