Books I've Read Which Made Me Feel Stupid

I really tried to understand these books, but I just couldn't. Professionally-speaking, I should've comprehended them and then gone on to recommend them. But I missed something. Anyway, here's the list of books I hate because they made me feel Stupid:
  1. The English Patient by Michael Ondaatje
  2. Beloved by Toni Morrison (Beloved's a ghost? Crap, I didn't see that coming!)
  3. Ulysses by James Joyce (I think I have a problem with stream-of-consciousness...)
  4. Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco (I don't remember the plot, but I remember the buzzing headache between my eyes.)
