I agree that it should be. We never had to read it. We didn't read Shakespeare till grade 10 and then it was one play a year and they all were tragedies. We were told we didn't read comedies because we wouldn't udnerstand the humor.
More like the teachers didn't udnerstand it so they couldn't teach us (although my highschool English department was useless).
But since I'm a big girl now I am going to read it myself.
