Cute video - have you read Proust from start to finish? I got stalled in Volume IV for several years, then made the final push. It was worth it.

Then of course there's the Wake....

You know, Paul has a really excellent idea. That's the way to read Ulysses! I say this because, while I liked William S. Burroughs before I heard him read, I loved the man's writing after I heard him read it.

Quite a good tip.
