If people are really that insipid, I'd want to get as far away from them as I could as fast as I could.

Jon, you are reading the book with today's standards and outlooks in mind. Try reading and immersing yourself in THAT time period, that culture, and try looking at things thru their eyes.
Reading the book through to the end will at least give you the legitimate right to state your dislikes.
