A quick scan gives me about 49 read. Having said that,
a. Finnegans Wake is tough going. I think that about 20 pages is my high water mark there.
b. The Phenomenology of Spirit and The Critique of Pure Reason require a lot of preliminary reading. And they are long, and even with the preliminary reading slow going.
c. Kapital. I know some pretty tough and motivated readers who tried reading this, and bogged down somewhere in the third book.
d. The Bible. I know many people who read in the Bible. I'd be surprised to learn that I know anyone not in the clergy who has read it through.
