Readalong ahoy


Hello!

Got inspired by Shadarko to do some reading aloud. 

For maximum calming / brain-numbing / mellifluous confusion, I'm reading Finnegans Wake by James Joyce. 

Here's a link to the bit I'm reading - click page 276


(even has handy footnotes if you want more sense with your nonsense!)

This bit starts with "Dogs' vespers are anending"

At the end, a phrase was coming to mind, but I couldn't quite articulate it. I wish I'd said "Remember what peace there may be in nonsense." (Apologies to "Desiderata")

Hugs, many hugs, the many-iest most-best hugs
