U is for Ullyses.
I'll admit that I have not read this cover to cover. Similarly I have not understood it. But I've seen a few documentaries that do make me want to read it. Stephen Fry had a program all about the language and had people read it aloud.
I've come to the conclusion that you have to let the writing rush over you and just try to enjoy the language, with maybe a chapter guide at your elbow just for the summary.
I'm planning to tackle this sooner rather than later, but I might be delayed for a year... or two. Ah it's going to be hard but I think you just have to bite the bullet and give it a go. I think secondary reading might be the tactic for this one.
