[quote=Anonymous][quote][b]And get a book or class (the Great Courses has one) or you'll get past maybe the 1st chapter and then you'll come to a screeching halt.

Be prepared to spend at least a month on it, although parts are fun (again, once someone tells you what's going on.) Don't worry, it's not you, it's Joyce and Ulysses. [/quote] I have this problem with Dostoyevsky. I've tried to read Crime and Punishment half a dozen times in my life, and I cannot, cannot get past the pathetic drunk in the bar, whose patheticness seems to run from about page 60 to 120 or so.
