Query: What's happened to the beauty of literature?

What was Larry King thinking when he said it was the funniest novel he ever read? I read it about a year ago and thought it a faith tester to get through the whole thing! This novel has no literary quality, no message(except maybe that idiot people don't have to live a hum-drum life)and stands as an isult to the world of literature. The story is about Forrest Gump, an idiot-savant who goes on to become fame and fourtune overnight. I think Winston Groom is adicted to swearing, displayed well in this book. It didn't teach me anything, and the only reaction after finishing it was to throw it away. I could have written a better novel, and I'm only thirteen! (Sorry if I offended anyone out there who enjoyed the book, after all, you are entiled to your opinion.
