how to read Joyce - Writing and Reading Finnegans Wake

I have been asked several times in the past by people who started out with Dubliners and by the time they got to Finnegans Wake had given up on Joyce completely. There is an art to reading Joyce and am glad to see that there is a lecture tonight in Dublin about just that:

The James Joyce Centre is very pleased to welcome
Mr Vincent Deane to speak on
"Writing and Reading Finnegans Wake"

Monday, 26 February 2007 at 6.30pm
35 North Great George's Street

Mr Deane is an independent researcher and Dublin Joycean. He was editor of the 'Finnegans Wake' Circular and is co-editor of The 'Finnegans Wake' Notebooks at Buffalo. For the National Library of Ireland's 2004 Joyce exhibition, Mr Deane contributed the "Sirens" installation, an interactive study of music in Ulysses, now on display at the Joyce Centre. Mr Deane is a world renowned expert on the variety of printed sources from which Joyce drew creative inspiration.
