Low Quality Facts (npub18rv…74cc)
"Dubliners" is great though. Joyce's short fiction is excellent. I am not qualified to weigh in on whether his more experimental stuff is just too smart-person for me to understand, or if it's just a bunch of pretentious crap, but whichever way around, I didn't enjoy it. The short stuff is good though.
(William Faulkner is the same way, in my biased opinion -- the short stuff is fantastic but in full novel form he becomes too powerful and can only destroy.)
