Is Finnegans Wake the notoriously hard to read one?
(A) Yes; as _Ulysses_ is called a "day book," _FW_ is the "night book . . ."
My favourite playwrite is Sam Beckett. Especially Happy Days. I was trying to get hold of End Game . . .
(A) I like him, too! (I played HAMM in _Endgame_ as an undergrad at Kent State Univ.)
I saw several proformances of several of his later works (the only title I remember is "Happy," and that's the one w/the "Big Mouth"--I think!) in Dublin, Ireland, 1996.
