Ulysses... Gravity's Rainbow... Mason & Dixon... Foucault's Pendulum... Underworld...

all long, all started but unfinished by me, all of a certain type (postmodern?) -- oh wait, I did manage to get through FP on a second try, but I can't fathom why, now that I have (which probably tends to discourage further attempts at the rest). some day I will finish _Ulysses_ though, just to say I have done.

as to _Remembrance of Things Past_, I couldn't even make it through _Swann's Way_ (vol. i). there's more chance that I will read _The Seven Pillars of Wisdom_ (I have the usual tall stack of unread books).
