For TFox and ty97 and anyone else who wants to play along, we're going to tackle reading Ulysses starting in July. My sister, a literature professor with a particular focus on James Joyce, will be joining us for discussions.
Here is the (suggested) schedule, but everyone should be very comfortable in reading at his or her own pace. This schedule is taken from Infinite Zombies, which is led by a fellow dude from Knoxville and includes a lot of great entries on the various books being covered. So far, the zombies group has read Infinite Jest, Dracula, 2666 and Moby Dick.
July 12: Episodes 1-3 (~40 pages)
July 19: Eps 4-6 (~50 pages)
July 26: Eps. 7-9 (~80 pages)
August 2: Eps. 10-12 (~ 100 pages)
August 9: Eps. 13 & 14 (~65 pages; ep. 14 is where a lot of people give up)
August 16: Ep. 15 (~150 pages, but it�s a play, so there�s not that many words per page)
August 23: Eps 16 & 17 (~100 pages)
August 30: Ep. 18 (~35 pages of unpunctuated monologue)
