My Page of Joy-ce

The page I have chosen to focus on from Finnegans Wake is page 425. I decided that if I was going to “open” to some random page I could not do that. I would then just spend my time endlessly trying to find that “perfect” page, and ultimately coming to the realization that they are all perfect in their own individual flow of language. Basically I chose 425 because it is my birthday, 04-25, which seems as good a reason as any to focus in on that particular number.

Also the “~30 words” I chose from that page are as follows:

“I’d pisel it with immenuensoes as easy as I’d perorate a chickerow of beans for the price of two maricles and my trifolium librotto, the authordux Book of Lief, would, if give to daylight, (I hold a most incredible faith about it) far exceed what that bogus bolshy of a sham, my soamheis brother…”

We shall see! I may have to find something a little shorter!
