Is there a list of books that one should read prior to reading Ulisses to get a full experience out of it? I gave up two years ago at page number 254.

I am certain that I'm far too stupid to appreciate even half the work Joyce put into it.

Reading this now. It's absolutely amazing. Are those who bash it on this board just a bunch of fucking idiots?

It's easily a top 3 book of all time

I'm reading the chapter in which Stephen is discussing his Hamlet/Shakespeare theory and I have to say I barely understand anything that's going on.
I see the genius but fail to appreciate it

Should I even bother reading this with no prerequisites? My dad happens to own a copy. What he doesn't own is a copy of The Greeks and I am just perusing his collection looking for something to read. If it is such a great work of literature the prose should be compelling enough to carry an avid reader to the end, right? I doubt I will understand everything but I can always treat the first reading as a primer.
