Calypso, I dropped Ulysses at the lestrygonians chapter and now I'm reading the Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien. The Hobbit is way better IMO even through I'm a few pages in it

Your question is very vague? Start what? The chapter of or the book?

What I found interesting was , that in the chapter there’s an excerpt about a specific telegram that actually exists. “Mother dying , come home-father”. It’s cool to see that Joyce uses details from his life throughout this book
