I did exactly the same with "Last of the Mohicans by James Fenimore Cooper.i first read it for o'level in the 70's.
must've read it dozens of times since.
have you read the original version of the life and adventures of robinson crusoe?
they had a different way with words in 1719, some of it is baffling.
It was written in 18th English and I really struggled with it,so much so that I eventually gave up with it, and just watched Daniel Day-Lewis play the part of Nathaniel instead.
