i feel like ulysses is the kind of book that is considered a classic because it's very complex and impressive to write (there's like a billion allusions to other lit, very extensive use of vocab, etc), but it's terrible to read.
it's like ballet. from a cultural perspective im glad that there are people performing it and keeping the art form alive, but theres no fucking way im going to go watch it lol --- A Green Butter Alt(TM) http://i.imgur.com/LhwwG.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!

Ulysses is such a boring book. Not sure what you were expecting after seeing "by James Joyce". :P --- Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends And watch the city spread out just like a jet's flame ... Copied to Clipboard!
