Episode 9: 1.5 (Part 1), pp104-113

from WAKE: Cold Reading Finnegans Wake Hosted by Moon Street Media

The purists are here! The purists are here! Toby and TJ get legit with the presence of long time lover of Joyce, a man who has read the Wake multiple times, and has used it as a major inspiration for his own work. Neil Wechsler is your favourite playwright's favourite playwright: an award-winning, cerebral, self-deprecating ball of energy who is here to show us that there are plenty of ways to be a purist. This week we read the first half of Chapter 1.5, and talk Beckett, Freud, and Albee, and discuss the pitfalls of fixating on the rabbit hole. This week's readers: Neil Wechsler, Toby Malone, TJ Young Progress: 113 pages complete, 515 pages to go; 17.99% read.
