The Scylla and Charybdis section of Ulysses.

It's basically Sig. J. A. Joyce giving Shakespeare's plays a flip yet absolutely sincere biographical reading; but which is done in a way that is too suggestive and indecent for me to communicate effectively. Only Sig. Joyce T.D.H. can slip it into your ear with his whispery neatsleather library breath.

Shakespear was writing fan fiction based off the western cannon and the English monarchy.

Once google has definitively catalogued which out of all images in its street view library contain store fronts, what mountain will they climb next...

Wish people would stop comparing everything to fan fiction just because it shares some settings or characters. But there are lots of works that build on what he wrote such as Shaw's Caesar and Cleopatra and Shakes versus Shav or Stoppard's Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead.

>>	Anonymous Tue Oct 4 14:11:18 2016 No.8583257 Infinite Jest. ETA story is basically a fan-fic of Hamlet.
