How did Joyce bamboozle the literary world into thinking he was anything but a hack?

>> No.9245229

I never read Joyce but the fact that /lit/ likes him so much really makes me discouraged from trying it out

If you're so repulsed by /lit/'s opinions then why do you come here?

If you knew anything about books you'd know that the respect and love for Joyce is pretty universal.

He's one of the earliest post-colonial authors, one of the most respected members of the canon even by those who tend to oppose it because of his humanist portrayals of everyone, and holy fucking shit he's Jimmy james joyce
