Finnegans Wake is the literary equivalent of a PhD theses on theoretical mathematics. It’s utterly wasted on people without decades of literary study

Which pretty much explains why I’ve never bothered to try to read Finnegan’s Wake.

Finnegan's wake is clearly a troll that the literature community took seriously. we're talking about a guy that would start bar fights and then have Hemingway protect him.

See when I studied lit and writing in college literally all my professors said that literature that aims to be pretentious and inaccessible is bad writing.

people can dedicate 40 years to understanding some old useless drivel, but wont spend 5 minutes trying to understand the socioeconomic beast that we live within
