No, I don't hate old literature - I love Shakespeare and Dante and Cervantes, etc. I do have a difficult time though having to wade through most things from the 19th century. Bleh. Especially Jane Austin. :eew:

No, no I do not.
I find that it is worth the effort of deciphering the language.
"Easy" and "worthwhile" are not synonyms.
