Ulysses

James Joyce's classic. Has anyone ever gotten through this? I really want to read it but I find it quite challenging. I'm not an English Lit scholar so please bear with me...I'd really love to read it though.

I tried to impress my parents by giving it a crack when I was about 13, but I failed miserably. It inspired me to try "Portrait of the artist..." instead, which was a much more rewarding experience.

I think all honest people are much the same! Just looking at Finnegans Wake makes me break out in a cold sweat, much less attempt to read the damn thing.
