A Portrait of The Artist as a Young Man

I just finished reading “A Portrait of The Artist as a Young Man” by James Joyce (#3).  I may be considered a philistine, but I find Joyce incredibly taxing to read.  He is great, don’t get me wrong, but I tend to plod through his books.  It is an exsquisite torture. (That sounds like something he would have wrote.)  I can see why the book is genius and I can appreciate it.  However, I am going to save the rest of the Joyce books for the end of my quest.  Plus, I have already read “Ulysses”.
