My Own Private Ulysses: “Why the Shakespearean Sonnet?” Confession time: James Joyce first stole my mind, And history rhymes, so I too, steal in kind. I craved crown jewels, so I snatched Shakespeare’s purse! Entrapped by Will’s penitentiary of verse… robertromanempire.com/single-post/my…

You can’t win them all. Sad!

Virginia Woolf’s diary entries on James Joyce’s Ulysses: “An illiterate, underbred book it seems to me; the book of a self taught working man, and we all know how distressing they are, how egotistic, insistent, raw, striking, and ultimately nauseating. … I finished ‘Ulysses’ and think it is a misfire. Genius it has, I think; but of the inferior water. The book is diffuse. It is brackish. It is pretentious. It is underbred, not only in the obvious sense, but in the literary sense. A first-rate writer, I mean, respects writing too much to be tricky; startling; doing stunts.”

My Own Private Ulysses: Megalomania at Martello Malachi “Buck” Mulligan, the rottenest roommate in Dublin, has kicked off the day, and the book, by profanely pantomiming the Catholic Mass. Page one, and Joyce has already sent the pious half of the crowd sprinting for the exits.
