Ulysses question: are people thinking they'll read it unassisted, or use some Cliffs Notes type of study guide along the way?

Just curious.

Is that the next ST reading group book? If so, yikes. -- nm - Diva Jun 17, 10:33 6
- It's not. More of a gargantuan side project. -- nm - TFox Jun 17, 10:34 5
  - just some light summer reading. - ty97 Jun 17, 10:36 4
    - I was anti-them, knowing how most students use them. But I also know I may miss something here or there (esp not having read the Odyssey, for example) - TFox Jun 17, 10:38 3
      - i don't do cliff's notes but for something like Ulysses, i would definitely get an annotated version if possible (i love my Oxford Shakespeare) -- nm - jingoist pixie Jun 17, 10:39 2
        
        This was my thought, though this post makes a seemingly coherent argument that a lot of annotations is a good way to get bogged down and bored with it - TFox Jun 17, 10:46 1
