A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

@RickA: The ones from before she went to the monastery are closer to jazz - she's playing mostly piano and harp. The later ones are more organ and chanting. I think they are all great but I lean toward "Satchidananda" and "Ptah the al-Daoud" (with Pharoah Sanders and Joe Henderson), and "Huntington Ashram Monastery" (with Ron Carter and Rashied Ali).

You gotta get the hang of the prose style, but once you do, Ducks, Newburyport is very readable. I loved it. Imagine if a Jenny Offill-esque protagonist kind of meets the style of the Penelope chapter in Ulysses. @redbee : the cover is wonderful!

I have read the first 10 pages of Ulysses about 20 times. Always hit a brick wall.

Woods, the good news is that Ulysses changes styles 11 times!

I found that my first reading of U was really deepened by reading Ellman's guide to it at the same time. One chapter of JJ, then one of Ellman. Repeat.

This Nubya Garcia is great!! I first heard her on the "London" side of Makaya McCraven's "Universal Beings" (which I think was the best record of 2018) - so many great players on there.

Heya Trouble and book worms. Glad someone still reads Ulysses. I had to read all of Joyce in school.

@Handy I guess I'm just not up for "the work" of it all. I've gotten that way about poetry too. Have been a subscriber to Poetry magazine for several years but am considering dropping it because there's just too much that to my head is indecipherable twaddle.

I prefer readable twaddle. ;-)

When I lived in Dublin, the locals would say you have to get pissed and read Ulysses so that you can get into the same vibes as the author when he wrote it. :-)

The trick is that each chapter is an homage to a different writing style, and if you're not Irish (from Ireland Irish) and catholic then you'll have lots of trouble comprehending. Thankfully I'm both, but still missed a lot. No one these days knows who Cardinal Richelieu is, for example ...

Yeah, mail-in voting is Plan A. If it appears untenable, Plan B is to wait in line all day and contract the Covid if necessary because nothing, including getting the Covid, is worse that that f-er getting another term.
