Finnegan's Wake is fun.

It's best experienced by having a small group in a room, and having a reader read short segments.

In some ways, it's like the largest literary pun ever attempted, and the fun is in the cross-referencing.

Half a page with the right reader and you feel like you've had a quick hit of scotch. Good scotch.
