:lol: I have a weak spot for Joyce, for some reason. Finnegans Wake is just fascinating to me... of course, he does chaotic, dreamlike books better than anyone else.

A friend of mine read it. I think he did it to be cool.
That book is just a lame excuse for some really bad printing.

I'm curious about it for a lame reason. ISIS's last album was apparently based on/inspired by the book. :oops:
