Eric, Wendy, and Shinjini discuss some excellent questions at length. If you want to pick and choose questions and answers to listen to, consult the timestamps below.

Question Timestamps:

Jonathan: What’s so great specifically about the Gabler edition? (16:01-41:42)
Terry: Can you sympathize with Stephen if you don’t know A Portrait? (41:42-59:57)
Terry: Tell me, why do I enjoy hearing you talk about the book more than reading it? It stymies me! I would love to hear you all talk about how the novice reader can best reap the benefits of this almost-impossible book. (59:57-1:18:56)
Jonathan: If you could go back and tell yourself one thing prior to first reading Ulysses to help you navigate the text, what would it be? (1:18:56-1:28:05)
Terry: Why is "Oxen" like that? I loved what Wendy said about it being like the gestation. More on that? (1:28:05-1:35:17)
Rick: Lacking a specific love/hate/don’t-get passage, I’ll share what I may like most about the episode: that it brings all of Bloom’s characteristics to their utmost. Here, he is most defensive of perceived quirks and faults; most expansive of his proposals to improve society; and, of course, most immersed in his sexual and other idiosyncrasies. (1:35:17-1:42:09)
