I just finished Ulysses but I feel like “survived” is more apt. I don’t deny the genius but it felt like being stuck at a dinner party for hours on end next to a drunk professor who rambles and throws out reference after reference to prove how cultured he is. Took me 5 months because I had to take breaks and read other novels in between that had plots and characters I could relate to. More power to people smart enough to “get” James Joyce.
