“Every telling is a tailing, and that’s the he and the she of it” —James Joyce, Finnegans Wake. Copyright 1939. Printed 1958 by Viking Press.
⭕️➖🍀🚩Buckle Up‼️ Today I’m reading for you a few pages from the very hardest book in the world!!! It's an exceedingly dense, difficult, complex, illusive and highly unorthodox piece of literature. Truly a Great Riddle, and one of the 23 Wonders of the World:
➖"Finnegans Wake" is a cosmic whirlpool of literary allegory; an imaginative enigma of creative profusion and a shrine of mixed sense. A History of Histories. A book of smoke. A book of Thunder. A sprinting farce! A legend of all Legends. —A Bible of Fairy Land!! —It’s architectonic theme is about nothing less than the origins and flowering of civilization‼️

❗️CAUTION❗️Do Not Attempt Finnegans Wake alone. You will be instantly repelled. We first require maps. Everything in the Wake is riddled, muddled and puzzled, including time, words, narrative style, syntax, myth, number. allegory, perspective, etc. This one book is unequivocally the paragon of Paradigm-Shifters.
💎🍀💎 You firstly probably need to be a Joyce fan, and to be already familiar with his other books. Even then, Finnegans Wake is no cake walk. Ulysses, which is Joyce’s more-comprehensible “day book” -twin to this night book, this shady, lucid and opaque dream script, is a far more straightforward read. Even if you loved Ulysses, FW is almost impossible to approach! Ulysses is challenging enough as a book. Ulysses is chock full of excellent wit, humor, and philosophy... One of the greatest English novels! If you haven’t read it, you’ll undoubtedly be shipwrecked in the Wake.
➖ And if you can’t tolerate long introductions, you’ll never be able to withstand the slow pressure of the Wake. Yet, Finnegans Wake is actually more rooted and tied-in to the corpus of literary history —ancient, modern, and medieval —than practically any other book. —- It is full of allegory, metaphor, solipsism, juxtaposition, parallax, and subtle referential cues throughout. Even so, we can skip around to the last quarter for a free laugh!

In today’s reading, Joyce takes half a page to say Shem stinks like a pig. The reference to the Turk is a reference to his father, “The Dane” who even presumably has disowned him on account of his reek!
