I read a good part of it years ago before I couldn’t take it any more, it just bored me to tears more than anything, it was like having to listen to Hillary talk for 2 minutes, after a while you just can’t take it any more.

I tried, but I swear you could have cut the pages out, shuffled them like cards and it would not have been more incomprehensible.

It wasn’t for me, either. To me, Joyce’s writing is like David Lynch movies or Andy Kaufman comedy: You either thing it’s brilliant or you hate it.

"I read a good part of it years ago before I couldnt take it any more,"
HA! Did the same with Finnegan's Wake - it was my first (and only) attempt at reading JJ - there are so many great classic authors, why would I (or anyone) waste valuable time on Joyce?

I agree. I made myself read it. A mistake.

If you think that one’s bad try “Finnegans Wake” Its complete gibberish. Joyce was drunk most of the time and almost blind. I still don’t know how “Finnegan’s Wake” ever got published.
