Is this for real? The guy didn't grace the world with punctuation?
- Jimmy 9y agoThe final chapter is a lengthy stream-of-consciousness with almost no punctuation. Other parts of the novel are structured more traditionally.
- theoh 9y agoLike with strategies for composing atonal music, almost any conceivable creative trick in writing was memorably tried in the 20th century. Texts that are one long sentence (Krasznahorkai), no punctuation, only punctuation (Koslowski), crazy "eye dialect" (Zazie dans le metro)... It would be old hat if someone wrote like Joyce today.
