Finnegans Wake is the literary equivalent of a PhD theses on theoretical mathematics. It’s utterly wasted on people without decades of literary study

Finnegan's wake is clearly a troll that the literature community took seriously. we're talking about a guy that would start bar fights and then have Hemingway protect him.
