Classic Literature is "sometimes" composed of boring words, made into a boring story with a boring pace, that has a boring plot, populated with boring characters playing different boring roles.

Fine. This may be an exaggeration, but try getting a copy of Charles Dickens' Bleak House. It's long, it's boring, it's several hundred pages that described how "fashionable intelligence" is observed by the upper class in the eighteenth century, and how the judicial system affects every aspect of the lives of the population in the society.

These two precedes over other matters. And I mean ALL OTHER MATTERS!!

For what it's worth though, the book was able to systematically present the social ills in the society those days. And am thinking, it still is the case right now. With status quo given the focus of each one's prejudice. I think the book was able to present, in an [unusually:] detailed way, how it was to be like in the eighteenth century Europe. With Gossip as the main protagonist, and Heresy has got the supporting role- It's interesting! That's why am giving it a "boring" 5!!
