The RTÉ radio production is essentially word-for-word complete, fully cast & wonderfully performed. It’s my recommended on ramp to the novel for anyone intimidated by the prose style.
Ironically (intentionally?), Joyce simultaneously wrote wonderfully for the spoken word form, but insisted on typography that makes who’s saying what often obscure.

- mackrevinack 3y agoi must check that out when i get home. frank delaney did short podcasts every week where he went through a few lines at a time. he never got to finish the full book unfortunately but its what i usually recommend to people because its very casual and easy to listen to
- richeyryan 3y agoThe audiobook, narrated by Jim Norton, is also great. His delivery is quite engaging, and any parts that might be a bit impenetrable while reading flow over you, and you can hook back in later.
