I could never get into Tess of the D'Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy (I think). It was high school reading, so I was probably prejudiced, but I just despised the book.
As for the Gunslinger, King rewrote it for the rerelease. He even admitted that it was a bit too pretentious. So the rewrite might be a little easier to read for all of you guys who didn't like it the first time.
