Kathy answers “I have tried reading this book twice but...”

Deepak Pitaliya asked this question about Ulysses:

I have tried reading this book twice but could not get past 30-40 pages. I even read Iliad and Odyssey before starting this book as the book is supposed to draw some parallel with Odyssey. Is it readable?

Kathy No it's not. This is the most tedious novel written. Frankly publishers have wasted a lot of excellent forest/s for this drivel. I would not recommend…moreNo it's not. This is the most tedious novel written. Frankly publishers have wasted a lot of excellent forest/s for this drivel. I would not recommend this to you. Honestly there are many classic novels to read that are classics! This is not one! Try some of the others; writers like Trollope, Dickens, Collins and other greats.(less)
