"Riverrun, past Eve and Adam's" -- Stephen Crowe Illustrates Finnegans Wake

“Riverrun, past Eve and Adam’s” — Stephen Crowe Illustrates Finnegans Wake

by Biblioklept

First Line - Stephen Crowe

At Wake In Progress, Stephen Crowe has given himself the daunting task of illustrating James Joyce’s novel/linguistic black hole Finnegans Wake. It’s pretty cool stuff, and we love projects like these (see also: Six Versions of Blood Meridian and One Drawing for Every Page of Moby-Dick). Crowe’s site makes an interesting if different companion for the ongoing project at Ulysses “Seen.” Good luck to Stephen–keep them coming! (and thanks to @RhysTranter for sharing). More images–

Hey, thanks! I really appreciate the encouragement! The project’s basically been on hold for the past couple of months, because I started a new job, but I should have some new pages up in the next week or so. Only 608 to go!
