Finished reading Joyce's Ulysses. Took me eight days.
It's a very long and dense book which is really hard to follow at times because so much of it is internal. It's also highly narcissitic of course (can you use that term for a book?) What I mean is that as a book, it spends a lot of time navel-gazing, or at least it's characters do. It's a hard book to write a plot summary about because there's so much internalization, and I come away from it with more of a general sense of the language and sound of the book than any meaning.
At least I can say I've read it.
