One should not mess with Joyce: who here can hope to write as brilliantly as he did? Some prissy motherfucker who taught me literature in college used to dismiss Faulkner as somebody who didn't know how to write ("bad grammar", etc.). You gotta laugh... (I didn't then, because I was earnest about Books, think about that...). Oh, this person also thought Stevenson was a mere entertainer...

Best,
