I skip the foreign language bits and usually just try and get the gist of the more obscure words without having to resort to the dictionary every 5 mins, so I suppose I've never read it 'properly' but reading it like that does at least mean I don't have much trouble finishing it and I've never felt like I've missed some key point. Although I'll admit I've always been into it more for the images he creates than for the point he's trying to make.
