yes, i do plan on using the Skeleton Key when i get around to Finnegan’s Wake (which obviously hasn’t happened yet)… i too read a page or two of the Wake on occasion, but i think Joseph Campbell will be sorely needed if i’m to attempt the whole thing…

i found Markson’s guide to Under the Volcano to be quite excellent and helpful… Markson was a friend (and devoted follower) of Lowry’s, so that adds even more insight to his erudition.

and let me plug Markson’s own novels here if you haven’t read them — Wittgenstein’s Mistress and the four “index card” novels which followed are HIGHLY entertaining reading for folks interested in the arts (esp. literature, music, and painting).

The difference is amazing: prose that baffled my so long ago is so much clearer and so much more delightful reading. I clearly am a more mature reader. One tip may help: I had inked in the meanings of words I was unfamiliar with so long ago, but that left some allusions still unclear. As I read, I type these allusions into Google. Oftentimes, the inscrutable becomes clear.
