@wakepod.bsky.social Have been in Zurich again this week and, of course, checked in at the James Joyce Foundation. Now THAT'S what I call Finnegans Wake:

All that you wanted to know about stubborn and defiant Ukrainians, reading the Wake in the midst of war, but were afraid to ask, is now the WAKE podcast. Those guys are certainly not afraid of asking questions, and Igor reveals how Joyce pushes us to create (and, oh, what a pushy author he is!)(1/2)

Little is more synonymous with Ireland as a creamy pint of Guinness. Many have discussed Joyce’s relationship with the black stuff, yet few consider the role Guinness plays in Finnegans Wake.

@wakepod.bsky.social Loved the discussion about the book 'Our Exagmination Round His Factification For Incamination Of Work In Progress.' Looked it up online - £176! Found a pdf version instead and here's the complaint letter they reckon may have been written by the man himself (Germ's Choice!)
