Tindall's reader's guide is better than the skeleton key.

Why would need a guide to read a fiction work? I'm serious.

I'm a non native english speaker, so I don't get it very well, but it sounds pretty boring for the effort involved to read it.

someone started a now rather pervasive rumor that this is DFW's copy of Ulysses.

https://twitter.com/TonyShafrazi/status/450191036745515008

its Tony Shafrazi(a major new york art dealer)'s annotations of Robert Milchum, a famous 50s-60s actor.

given that Shafrazi is an NY artist, he more than likely annotated those two pages and inserted a few stickynotes in the pages just to take the picture.

Don't use one. It's a lot more entertaining to go in blind, figure out what you can and interpret the rest however.
