Take good care of yourself.  I'm with Madtown.  It's pretentious crap and a great grand glorious fuck you to all academic suckers who buy into it.




What is with all the negativity? Some of you guys are so un-shroomy. :mushroom2::crankey::mushroom2:

If really want to read the book you need to get another book that acts as a guide to the real book. It will explain all of the weird shit Joyce is saying. Ive gone through the first 50 or so pages doing this, and in reality the book is fairly interesting. Not sure Ill ever finish it though, Ulysses on the other hand, is an incredible book

Joseph Campbell's A Skeleton's Key to Finnegans Wake

and

John Bishop's Joyce's Book of the Dark: Finnegans Wake


FW probably is the grandest joke of all time. Completely Irish and completely trickster. However, that doesn't stop it in anyway from being a literary masterpiece.
