the funniest book ever written, unfortunately it's reputation has made too many people take it seriously, leading to frustration. if you're considering reading ulysses, just go for it. you don't need to read the odyssey or joyce's other work. just read it and let his monumental genius wash over you.

kafka at the absolute height of his powers is an incredible spectacle to behold. the immense power of his writing before this book had been sealed away in short stories, however in the castle we get almost 300 pages of jaw-droppingly profound, mysterious, emotional, heart-wrenching brilliance. nobody will EVER compare!!!
