Not the best prose, but a great work of literature regardless.

That's not to say the prose isn't interesting, but you won't be sitting there going"holy shit this guy is THE wordsmith"

as a work of literature would you put it on the same level as say Joyce's Ulysses?

>> No.8524296

I haven't read it all yet, but one facet appears to be something like Joyce's Ulysses. It's that level of project I guess, like inasmuch as Joyce trying to get to the heart of Dublin and all that. That Moore has undertaken a similar project has allowed him to carve out a literary space I guess.

Yes. Anybody pronouncing themselves about it as a whole has read it too fast for their opinion to be worth a penning.

What the frog distinguishes great literature except for the prose? This is like saying "He tried."
