I've tried to read it four or five timesBut I just can't get past about Proteus. The Norton Anthology of Literature I have has 2 excerpts from Ulysses - each requires half a page of footnotes, for EVERY PAGE, to make sense of it. This just makes the demands on the reader completely unreasonable. (Finnegans Wake, on the other hand, is 1/3 text, 2/3 footnotes).
