@SjoerdvanHoorn @JohnvanVugt2 @arongroot Ik denk dat die verwijzing naar Homerus eerder een uit de hand gelopen grapje was van Joyce. En nu zitten we met de gebakken peren, want allerlei lezers volgen dat spoor. Zie bijvoorbeeld het hilarische boek 'James Joyce's Ulysses' van Stuart Gilbert.

Praise for this book

"Of the many efforts made to interpret Joyce's magnum opus, the best by far is that by Stuart Gilbert."

-- Chicago Sunday Tribune

"Most serious Joyce readers owe to Stuart Gilbert their first introduction to the richness and complexity of Ulysses. His monumental pioneer analysis remains an essential Baedeker."

-- Saturday Review
