"Ulysses" is fun—maybe the best book you take to the beach this summer. Well, Ulysses is indeed a great read, but certainly not one I'd take to the beach. It's far from an easy read, I would not advise anyone to read it in a place where distraction is so easy. And Ulysses is fun iff you enjoy litterature, just as Godard's movies are fun iff you enjoy experimental movies. I do enjoy both, but I would not say "it's fun" to anybody. Just like saying "debugging embedded assembly is fun". Could be fun for you, but not so fun for the majority of people.
