well, book just came out, seeing as few people discuss it I decided to make this thread. Found the older one on the archives and copied it again.
I was hoping to get some discussion going since the general has become lame and repetitive of late...

How much prep should I do before taking on the big boss here .

I just finished the rainbow yesterday. It will be disorienting because thats its design, and wont be like anything like youve read before, but if you're an experienced reader you'll be up to the task. Also read it slowly, what he does to language is really unbelievable. It is very cerebral and deliberate and chaotic, get lost in its labyrinth. Lot 49 and V are unnecessary, if anything start with GR.
I read that Heinrich Schliemann, while excavating in Greece, learned Greek by comparing a French book with a Greek translation. He said after the first attempt he knew half the words, and after the second attempt he knew all of them, and that he only bothered to learn a little bit of grammar (he said schoolchildren were taught grammar for 8 years to little or no effect)
Apparently as a businessman he made it a point to learn the language of every country he did business with, and knew over 10 of them.
What do you think of Schliemann's method?
>>8283043
Schliemann was an eccentric. He actually named his kid Agamemnon.
He was also a notorious liar. The story is probably an exaggeration at best.
>>8283048
He also read from Homer during his son's baptism.

What an absolute wanker.

I started with the Greeks but why do they keep calling this guy Ulysses? I thought that was a meme book not a Greek hero.
>>8282887
Just in case this isn't bait and someone legitimately needing help, Ulysses was the Roman name for Odysseus. The 'meme book' is modeled after the Odyssey, but set in early 20th century dublin. It's not just a meme, though, it's widely celebrated as a great accomplishment in Western Literature.
You picked the wrong translation
>>8282972
Why would the Roman names be used instead of the Greek ones?
