/lit/ - Literature

the story of the golem of prague story is so consumed by comparisons with the jewish ghettos and antisemitism that you hardly ever see the wider or even cross-literary interpretations which it deserves.

interesting read btw; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golem_effect

yeah it's a sad story, but things could be worse; at least we won't wake up in a cuban prison cell tomorrow for having this conversation.

although that could be fun :3

Ok so i'll read it. I've been meaning to read Ulysses again, I feel sad every time I try and read it because my granddad used to read it to me when I was young and I read it in his soft Irish voice.

Are there any good biographies of Joyce? I've got reason to believe he lived an interesting life.
