Probably my favourite book of this year, you've got something to look forward to.
Thx, luckily it's not far up in my backlog
Is it better to start reading James Joyce through Portrait?
Why does Cummings have be so stubborn?
OP, you literary lightweight. I have EVERY Redwall book EVER WRITTEN.
that is one smug kitty
obvious entry level pseud who has resd less than 100 books in his life and only reads to posture and indulge in " le.literary.lifestyle"
When taking a picture of your books gains you more cultural capital than actually reading them, the thread.
Picked up some stuff in Somerville today. I'm not sure what to start with.

Its generally better to start with Dubliners. Dubliners is easier and allows you to get a grasp of Irish politics and religion before you start something more substantial, but if you already have an idea about these things you can go ahead with portrait. Make sure you do have some understanding though because it plays a rather large part in the novel. Both are pretty fucking brilliant as well IMO.
