Me neither. Its not a particularly good novel. But it was politically useful in its day, and so it gathered a literary reputation it doesn’t really deserve.

I read it for the first time about six years ago. I liked its attack on the "progressive" education practices promoted by John Dewey and his ilk, but for the most part, I didn't like it either. I got turned off by its historical inaccuracies.
