Wordsworth Finnegans Wake

I bought this to feel Intelligent. Looks great on my bookshelf, and when I feel like torturing myself I attempt to read it.

What a joy of imagined sound and vision! 'What? Reading Finnegan's Wake!' people said to me. 'But there's no plot, no inciting incident, no main dramatic question, no tension-builds. It's unreadable pretentious gobbledegook!' Oh well, maybe words just aren't their medium then. So, read widely and wildly, chill and chew thoroughly, and be at litter rarely piece with your shelf, says I.

But the book is hard going - still worth it though - fantastic - perfect antidote to all the crap coming at people these days including Trump and Billy Bunter Johnston

This appears to have been inspired by the' stream of consciousness' concept. An interesting experiment for its time but far too long.

What a load of crap is this !!
