it's worth reading
"Finnegans Wake is meant to be plunged in dips and it should be read aloud. The readers mind makes the pages come alive (of course, but literally with FW). You come to it with what you know and it will bring out, highlight, distort, transmute everything that's in your head. [...] The book is definitely magical. It contains most of our history, poetry, literature, religion/spiritual beliefs, languages, etc (as I'm sure you know) and when you reach the end it's an absolutely enlightening experience. The exegetical literature on Finnegans Wake is exemplary. John Bishop's Finnegans Wake: The Book of the Dark, Eric McLuhans The Role of Thunder in Finnegans Wake, & Joseph Campbells work on James Joyce including the Skeleton Key are all wonderful books (out of hundreds of books and articles from multitudes of people both scholar and amateur Joycean) contributing greatly to some understanding of the importance of the work. Overall, Finnegans Wake is an experience, a psychedelic trip, a book that is alive and teeming with the informational undercurrents and flow of the universe, and in the end it brings illumination to those who dedicate themselves to it.
If you can recreate Dublin, Ireland out of Ulysses, you can recreate the world out of Finnegans Wake."
Unknown writer. To be remembered, it's worth reading.
