Philip K. Dick on writing like James Joyce in Finnegan's Wake


Well, the name of the game is to set challenges for yourself, is it not? I wanted to see if I could go James Joyce one better in his final section of FINNEGAN's WAKE. My protagonist thinks in a sort of segmented epistolary form; that is, the flow is punctuated with unconscious asides, as if she is annotating her own narrative.
Letters 1980-1982 p.220
