Ooh, sorry to hear that. My most painful Golden Age reread was Asimov's "Nightfall." I didn't do much better with Foundation, which I loved as a kid. On the other hand, I can with pleasure reread the old Tom Corbett Space Cadet books, and a few of my favorite old Winston SF juveniles. I'm not sure what the difference is, since the writing is pretty clunky in all of them.
