It was Joyce having a laugh. Except he spent nearly 20 years writing one joke which is what makes it so amazing. If you've read Dubliners, Portrait, and Ulysses you should understand what he was going for even if you don't understand all the words.

Whensoever someone should make a FW thread, it will posted. I know that it is good, because I searched the internet and could not find such.
And you'll eat my farts. Every one. now calm yourself.
He may have been having a laugh, but there are just too many brilliant phrases and descriptions for it to have been only that.

Over the coming months, you will notice that my persistence exceeds your hating. I welcome you to join me on the trip.
Even if it was a 'joke' the language used in it has never been matched

Truebecause it's gibberish
Honestly I'm so excited to read this book, from samples I've read, it seems like something I'll love

There's a very clear sense of design to much of it, but it's still an "acomedy of letters" and a "farced epistol to the highbruws".
Why is Joyce so good?
I heard Dubliners and thought it was fucking brilliant, and I'm on Portrait and its alright.
