I love the selection of Joyce. I especially like Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and Dubliners, but I can't get through Ulysses or Finnegan's Wake, especially Finnegan's Wake! I have heard and read that Ulysses may be the most important book of the 20th century, but I fail to grasp why. Could you elucidate?
