Ulysses is good with hash, no messing, I only understood what was going on in the Proteus chapter after getting stoned.

I had that one! I had a load of them. Though I used to cheat a lot and never bothered doing all that rolling dice fighting nonsense.

Of Grammatology. i got about three pages in and went back to the beano.

Stuck on the 1984 Beano annual. The second Bash Street Kids story is going nowhere.

as if Pamela wasn't difficult enough.

Clarissa, or, the book that laughs at war and peace

i'll save you the trouble, she kills herself in the end. I love the way DH Lawrence referred to Pamela as the "worst kind of pornography".

Read about thirty pages.

That's a great book and very funny too. As long as you don't keep checking how many pages are left (970 in your case) and take your time it's well worth the read.

DH Lawrence - always find his stuff a struggle.

Tales of Genji always intimidates me. It's supposed to be amazing, but 1500 pages of japanese court intrigue where the characters have titles rather than names is a bit much.

Save yourself the bother and watch the tv version with Sean Bean as Lovelace. It's deadly!

Capital: The Process of Circulation of Capital (Volume 2) by Marx. Read Vol.1 want to read Vol.3 but this load of inane shite is sandwiched in between. Christ it's boring.

And how much of a loser am I to even want to read it.
