Has “Ulysses” Ruined Me?
Thursday, July 23rd, 2015
I have had a terrible time relating to any book since plowing through James Joyce’s masterpiece. Whether fiction, non-fiction, or the in-between historical fiction, I’ve had a hard time caring about — much less enjoying — anything I’ve selected.
Is this the result of stimulating my intellect by reading truly challenging literature? Or complete burn out from reading truly challenging literature? I have no idea, but I’m looking for something wonderful to shake me out of these doldrums.
Any suggestions?
