"I hated this book when I had to read it in high school, but when I read it as an adult on my own I loved it."
Hmmm... Unlike my peers, I liked most of the books I was assigned, with the exception of Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises which I have not revisited.
I do know that I didn't really appreciate reading Shakespeare, especially the comedies, until I took a class from Michael Kirschner at North Seattle Community College. He also made me treasure more profoundly Yeats, who I already loved, but didn't really know, especially Sailing to Byzantium. He was a wonderful teacher.
