I would never have thought I would be able to read Kant's work?

Context: I had not the least knowledge about philosophy until I'd listened to a lecture on philosophy yesterday. Right now I'm reading one of Kant's works.

1. Three days ago, I would never have thought I would be able to read Kant's work now.

2. Three days ago, I would never have thought I would have been able to read Kant's work now.

Which is correct?

Thank you, dear teachers.
