I have chosen to read The Education of Hyman Kaplan.
In chapters 1 and 2, it is interesting to see the instructor's frustration with this particular student (Hyman Kaplan) who is trying to learn the english language in an adult education class. Mr. Kaplan has a difficult time pronouncing words correctly, takes words very literally, and is slow to learn compared to the other students. The instructor is not used to the challenges that have risen with Mr. Kaplan and has not learned how to deal with them.

I can't wait to see your review of this book. It certainly has held up to the test of time.
