To suggest that there is a particular age for the appreciation of any serious literature is not only patent idiocy, but also only the kind of "observation" that an extremely literally challenged infantile person could make. I'm not too sure that this has actually been said, but I fear we've come close to it.

Than definitely mark me down as a literally challenged infantile person. Not to mention patented idiot.

There should be recognition for another Literature Canon, ...maybe another Harold Bloom's Western Canon....For Readers Under 20
