Starting the writing day with a reminder that James Joyce made a heap of errors when publishing. Be like Joyce. Choose joy in language and its attendant cultural chaos over pedantry. 💛🍵

@MLClark Finding errors in Ulysses would be a challenge!

It's a great episode! It sifts through printer errors, notes the anachronisms (accidental and intentional), highlights places where it wasn't error so much as Joyce growing with the work, and marks the actual "howlers".
A lovely reminder that literature can and should be a rich adventure. :)
@MLClark @TheresaVermont I look forward to listening, but as I recall, Joyce was going blind and Samuel Beckett was typing whatever Joyce said, including interruptions like whatever Joyce may have said to someone at the door, and when the typescript was read back to him, Joyce decided to leave all of that in.
