A Separate Peace I can't really think of anything else that came anywhere near that novel in badness from then. Worst literature I've read for college so far has been Stephen Crane's "The Blue Hotel" and a selection of his poems, and that's likely not going to change considering my Bachelor's is a couple of months away.

I don't remember the title, I think it had something to do with bees maybe? But basically it was about a little black girl who gets violently raped by her dad and impregnated and no one cared or believed her so she goes crazy because she's pregnant with her dad's baby. It was pretty awkward.

The Americans by Henry James is not only the worst book I read in high school, but is likely worse than most of the books that will be posted in this thread. People only read James because Ernest Hemingway liked him, otherwise he would have been completely forgotten. A Separate Peace was bad too I guess.

Bobert Bobertson posted:things fall apart, the glorious story of a chief + searing/slaying children due to supersticion Everything I had to read in the international baccalaureate program, including this. I forget the title, but there was one about a girl in a third world country going through a civil war, and all the horrible poo poo that happened to her. Including her brother getting a more hearty meal than her, masturbating in the room next to her, and some sniper that she slept with that eventually shot her. Every word was agonizing, not just because of what was portrayed, but because the author was so up her own rear end that her writing style was painfully dramatic. It wouldn't be the first time we'd read a book about the struggles of an imaginary female protagonist. My female English instructor would see to that!

i don't remember any books i actively hated but what i do remember is doing the oral report or whatever on To Kill a Mockingbird and one girl who thought she could act because her dad worked in movies doing hers as this weird thing where she pretended to be the "rape victim" from the book and shouted "friend of the family" uncomfortably loud in front of the class

A Separate Peace (of poo poo). I wrote "this is so gay" i.e., Homosexual as a footnote at least every 15 pages. Nothing wrong with being gay but everyone (especially the teacher) denying that the guys in the book are gay are dumb (not dumber than the book though).

Far from the Madding Crowd The film version at least tries to make sense, but it's retarded beyond belief. It's trying to be a romance novel, but romance novels do not have sheep forced off a side of a cliff, a bad guy who isn't a bad guy other than he missed marrying someone for their fault, and a hero so useless he stands around and gets cock blocked by a third man. The 'hero' literally only wins as the other two wipe each other out. He is the third place runner up lover to the main character. happyhippy fucked around with this message at 00:55 on Jan 31, 2016 |

this thread reminds me of a course I took in university called 'Movies as Film' where every week you watched a different lovely movie based on a different lovely book. Needless to say, I never went to class and just read the IMDB summary before the exam; I think I got a 85 in that course.
