About this listen

Finnegans Wake, the greatest avant-garde novel of all time, was first published 70 years ago - and people are still trying to work out what it is about. There is Humphrey Chimpden Earwicker - aka HCE (Here Comes Everyone) - and Anna Livia Plurabelle, but also Finnegan the hod carrier (or was he a giant?), whose wake is the subject of the book. This is a masterly reading of the abridged version, with copious notes aiding comprehension.

What the critics say

"Listening to Jim Norton and Marcella Riordan is a lot easier than trying to read the book." ( The Guardian)

A pity it is abridged. These readers are wonderful. The whole book would be difficult.
