My Own Odyssey: Ulysses (Sirens)

I am on page 292.

I tried something very interesting with this last section.  I read most of it out loud.  Episode Eleven was titled "Sirens" by SparkNotes so I thought hearing the section might be a good idea.  I was right.  It was very rythmic.  Even thought I understood only patches, I liked the section.

  3. I hope Patrick is not right. I made the mistake of stopping to finish two other books. That was a BIG mistake.
    Love, E

  6. Hallelujah!!!!!! I finished wandering rocks and will start on Sirens tonight. I really liked and thought it was poignant when Stephen met his sister and was worried about drowning. The pull to help but the fear of getting entangled in her situation.

  8. I finished Sirens. I read 1/2 out loud. I read the last half without reading the notes and understood very little.
