I love Ulysses because of what it says about growing into middle age, facing irresolvable insecurities about yourself, and the solace against these that you can find in friendship—the way you can feel your soul sing when you find someone who wants to understand you. It's a very beautiful and humanistic book. I'm sorry that you weren't able to connect with it.

I confess a little envy of your enjoyment of it. I wanted to like it and wish I could've gotten as much out of it as you did. It just didn't hit for me.
