I was interested the most in the passage where Calvino was saying that young people should not read classics. I know that I already talked about him saying this, but that is really what captured my attention most because I understood what he was saying. He says "..whereas at a mature age one appreciates (or should appreciate), many more details.." (Calvino, page 4) I understand what he is saying because for example last summer when I read Great Expectations by Charles Dickens and I did not really understand a word of it. I paid attention more to this part of the essay because I understood what he meant. When I am older, like 50 or so, I am actually going to try and read Great Expectations again because according to Calvino it is a very different experience and I think that Great Expectations really did have a good story line to it.
