    Maybe doesn't count as 'reading', but back when I was in middle/high school, the Claude Bolling flute and jazz piano suite got lots and lots of play. It was super popular among those of my classmates who were taking modern dance ... I think for some years running there was no dance concert put on at my school where somebody hadn't choreographed a number to one of the pieces in that suite. I think at one point I felt like I had heard enough of it.

    But I've lately been pulling out old vinyl that I haven't played in decades, and did kind of a double take when I saw that I have that. I must have liked it enough to buy the disc. Or somebody gave it to me. However it happened, there it is.

    So I played it. Wow! I guess I didn't hear enough of it way back when. That thing rocks.

    Your call. I read as a kid too, had only the vaguest recollection of the story. Was a lot closer to the publication date then lol, late 1800’s.

    we got it at Christmas, a local couple doing rustic binding.
