@bibliolater @bookstodon I haven't done so yet myself (gasp!), but based on Ulysses: 1. listen to a good audiobook adaptation while reading, esp. a dramatized production with different actors for each character (lots of directorial decisions there, obvs). 2. Read it in community---a book club, a class--so you can discuss each chapter right after reading it. 3. Consult commentaries lightly, but don't let them overwhelm you. 4. When the text seems like sheer nonsense, listen to it as music.
