If I didn't like this, is there any reason to read Farewell to Arms or For Whom The Bell Tolls?

The prose was too jaunted and short. I really prefer the long, plodding sentences of Stendhal, Dostoevsky and Pushkin with their elegant language that captures full what it seeks to describe over Hemingway's style over substance approach. I can see why others like it but for the same reason I dislike modern art I disliked this.

Am I a pleb or does anyone else feel this way?
