Pretty Thing.

Pretty.

Did You Hear the One About the Priest?



My reading list has taken a turn for the canonical; I'm currently trudging my way though Dubliners by Joyce. And a slow, stodgy trudge it is... I'm not a big fan of Joyce's short stories, mostly because they're so fucking subtle, I never feel like anything happened (plot- or character-wise.) And every story has a priest in it, if only in passing.

Blah. I'm considering reading Ulysses, just to finally be done with it.

I wouldn't be reading Joyce at all, except I can't find The Obernewtyn Chronicles in town and am too lazy to try and find something else, and so am reading the stack of novels I bought for 15¢ apiece a while ago...
