I have yet to read a best end than Ulysses'. Every time, and I mean it, every single time I read the last page, I feel constant, sublime shivers through the last page. I've read Ulysses three times and this happened the three times, also happens reading the end in the three languages I speak.

O that awful deepdown torrent O and the sea the sea crimson sometimes like fire and the glorious sunsets and the figtrees in the Alameda gardens yes and all the queer little streets and the pink and blue and yellow houses and the rosegardens and the jessamine and geraniums and cactuses and Gibraltar as a girl where I was a Flower of the mountain yes when I put the rose in my hair like the Andalusian girls used or shall I wear a red yes and how he kissed me under the Moorish wall and I thought well as well him as another and then I asked him with my eyes to ask again yes and then he asked me would I yes to say yes my mountain flower and first I put my arms around him yes and drew him down to me so he could feel my breasts all perfume yes and his heart was going like mad and yes I said yes I will Yes.

O quel torrente profondo spaventoso O e il mare il mare cremisi a volte come il fuoco e gli splendidi tramonti e gli alberi di fico nei giardini del Alameda sì e tutte quelle stradine strane e le case rosa e blu e gialle e i giardini delle rose e il gelsomino e i gerani e i cactus e Gibilterra da ragazza dove ero un Fiore di montagna sì quando mi sono messa la rosa nei capelli come facevano le ragazze andaluse o dovrei portarla rossa sì e come mà baciato sotto le mura moresche e ò pensato bè lui o un alto che cambia e poi gliò chiesto con gli occhi di chiederlo ancora sì e poi me là chiesto se volevo sì dire sì mio fiore di montagna e prima lò abbracciato sì e lò fatto stendere su di me per fargli sentire i miei seni tutti profumati sì e il suo cuore che impazziva e sì ò detto sì voglio Sì.

adding to the discussion we had going on on what to read before tackling finnegans wake, I must add: Finn's Hotel, which is a collection of short narratives that is considered to be a "project" of Finnegans Wake.

starting today, I will read the whole joycean corpus (have already read dubliners, portrait and ulysses, so those I will re-read), and the will read in this order

>chamber music
>dubliners
>stephen hero
here it is basically the same thing as finn's hotel and finnegans wake, stephen hero is kind of a project of what came to be Portrait of the artist
>portrait of the artist
>exiles
>giacomo joyce
>pomes penyeach
these last two I don't really know where to put but as far as I know they are not connected to other of his works, just wanted to make sure I'll read all the works before Finnegans Wake
>ulysses
>finn's hotel
>finnegans wake

tips? suggestions? questions about his works?
discuss!

also requesting: any links for pdf of finn's hotel, I only found it in portuguese in b-ok and libgenrus (gladly my native tongue is portuguese but if anyone had it in english I would appreciate it)
