Random thought of the moment

If At Swim-Two-Birds has three beginnings and three endings, it's got infinite middles.

(And I'm somewhere in there.)

(And, perhaps, so are you.)

(And it's makin' me bleedin' dizzy just thinking about it.)

I recently re-read this in prep for my Ireland travels. Wow, wow and wow. For the beginnings and the endings.

I'm with you...sort of dizzy.

Isn't it delightful? And the last ending is the saddest...

I read it last year, as i was doing some work with the Third Policeman, and curious about his other works. Rather glad I did. If you're still in the middle, there are multiple joys to come.
