Brainlet here

Joyce is just trolling with finnegans wake right? There's no way a book that has 60% made up words, no characters, plot, or setting is legitimate right? Friend is trying to get me to read it and it's just nonsense.

BM is pretty straightforward. A book can only enter The Meme Tetralogy it has produced memes undreamed of—a normie filter so full of self indulgence and aesthetic complexity even the initiated are awed and split on its relevance, intent, and purpose.

BM is very normie friendly, apart from the violence. Its also relatively pedantic in its narrative structure. Beautiful aesthetics, no doubt. But not a meme machine like the holy Tetralogy

ah, blood meridian, monsieur that novel is the sark and chaparral of literature, the filament whereon rode the remuda of highbrow, corraled out of some destitute hacienda upon the arroya, quirting and splurting with main and with pyrolatrous coagulate of lobated grandiloquence. our eyes rode over the pages, monsieur, of that slatribed azotea like argonauts of suttee, juzgados of swole, bights and systoles of walleyed and tyrolean and carbolic and tectite and scurvid and querent and creosote and scapular malpais and shellalagh. we scalped, monsieur, the gantlet of its esker and led our naked bodies into the rebozos of its mennonite and siliceous fauna, wallowing in the jasper and the carnelian like archimandrites, teamsters, combers of cassinette scoria, centroids of holothurian chancre, with pizzles of enfiladed indigo panic grass in the saltbush of our vigas, true commodores of the written page, rebuses, monsieur, we were the mygale spiders too and the devonian and debouched pulque that settled on the frizzen studebakers, listening the wolves howling in the desert while we saw the judge rise out of a thicket of corbelled arches, whinstone, cairn, cholla, lemurs, femurs, leantos, moonblanched nacre, uncottered fistulas of groaning osnaburg and kelp, isomers of fluepipe and halms awap of griddle, guisado, pelancillo.

none of these are going to happen

only fanged noumena and culture of critique come anywhere close and since neither are literary fiction they will never actually be there

>characters, plot, or setting
Finnegans Wake has all of these.
Also, while the language is "made up" it is not random and it makes sense.
