Finnegans Wake and Moby Dick. Better'n sleeping pills.

James Joyce is not an upper. Someone found the original text of Ulysses complete with his editorial notations and found out that the book was full of errors, which overly-studious English teachers had given undeserved "deep" meaning and symbolic significance for decades. To think that they were just typos!

>>Finnegans Wake and Moby Dick.<<
I never really aspired to read Finnegan's Wake, because I figured it was over my head -- I mean, Anthony Burgess is a genius, and I am not, and I couldn't even read his Shorter Finnegans Wake.
But I do aspire to read Moby Dick. Someday.
