>Joyce was obsessed with both the impracticality of the artist and the dullness of modern society. These two ideas -- well, they turn James Joyce to James Joyless. The fellow couldn't just let go. Out of some misguided discipline, or perhaps overeducation, he made all his works so overly formulaic and slightly self-aware and self-mocking so they could be seen as "true art" instead of the embarrassing romanticist/over-indulgent tripe Stephen Dedalus, if I remember correctly, was guilty of.

This made me rage...almost as much as when my stupid colleague "shared" an article on facebook from the New Yorker about how much of an "Intellectual Pillar DFW" was.
