A review by bella_mckinnon
A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce

Did not finish book. Stopped at 12%.
Just didn’t love Joyce’s style of writing; including the way the dialogue is separated by hyphens instead of quotation marks, that was — I didn’t enjoy that. But also it is true that there are such constant and many intertextual references and all that, like in Ulysses. I just felt they kind of disrupted the flow of the story.
