Yup. Hated that one, too.
Also Slaughterhouse Five and Cuckoo's Nest.
It's almost like they wanted their students to turn out nuts.

I know this may not be someone else’s idea of horrible but I was young and that birth of the pony in The Red Pony disgusted me and other parts in the book.
Maybe Steinbeck is okay for adults but I still wouldn’t read it.
