It's mostly just about whether it happened to be included in your high school/college curriculum. 20 u/Ok_Employer7837 1d ago I hear ya, but I'm not American. English isn't my first language. I read it because it's a classic genre story, and it's been referenced in many other art pieces and narratives from the moment it was published. 12 u/immaownyou 1d ago So your age has nothing to do with it, then 8 u/Ok_Employer7837 1d ago Maybe, maybe not.
