Ulysses. Down to the last few sentences...
So . . . ? What did you think? It's often ranked in the top 5 on those "best novel" lists. Is it?
I've read some Joyce -
Dubliners and
Portrait - but not
Ulysses or
Wake. I want to re-read
The Odyssey before I tackle
Ulysses. Like I mentioned, I've dabbled with
Wake, and even with the modern day version of Cliff Notes to assist it's a morass of incomprehensibility to me. Might as well be in Sanskrit. Hard to believe he worked on that solely for 16 years! It's often called the most difficult read in the English language, but I don't think it qualifies as English . . .
