It’s like reading Faulkner. I cannot stand reading Faulkner.

"I cannot stand reading Faulkner."

Ha! Wanted to give him another try last year - "As I Lay Dying" is as brutal as his others.

Like reading Proust with cheap perfume spilled on the pages. Like reading Joyce with a blood alcohol level of point 5.

James Joyce was my nightmare.

Some claim he is supposed to be read out loud with a thick Irish sing-song accent after reading five hundred ancient Greek and Roman myth texts as background.

Lol.
