I really hate the current trend to shit on classic books. Like the Great Gatsby for instance. No matter how you feel about the book, it provides a sharp critique of the bourgeoisie and provides a clear analysis on class.
Don't get me wrong. People are allowed to not like a book, they are allowed to critique the flaws of a popular book, but sometimes the hatred is uncalled for.
