Alberto, you're not alone. I studied English in college and took my share of literature courses. Discussing art and literature is a tough subject because there are rarely any correct answers. It comes down to interpretation.
Some questions I like to ask myself when studying a piece of literature are:
- What symbols and themes reoccur?
- What is the general history of the time period the piece was written in that can provide information about the work?
- What is the work trying to say about something or someone?
There are many perspectives to take when studying literature. Are you studying the literature from the lens of history, as art, as a political and social commentary?
Regrettably, the study of literature often forces ideas that, while supported by the work itself, can be forced representations of the work. Sometimes, literature is meant to be appreciated more than to be a guide to living. The interpretations you make are your own and not the author's, so it does give you freedom to examine how the work affects you within your own life and community.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you'd like to discuss a specific piece of literature.

If you can understand it, then tell us WHY you can't talk or write about it.
Can you carry on a normal conversation? Do you know much vocabulary? Have you studied grammar?
If these answers are all yes, then you should be able to write and talk about it. If any of these are no, then that is the area you need to work on.
