'''Finnegan's Wake''' is the third and last [[novel]] written by [[James Joyce]]. It is famously even harder to read than Joyce's ''magnum opus'' ''[[Ulysses]]'', being entirely written in a [[stream of consciousness]] style with eccentric punctuation, numerous arcane [[neologism]]s, disjointed subject matter and long passages of apparent nonsense. Some critics have suggested that it is not even written in [[English]]; it is true that it contains words taken from other languages, although most of the text is recognisably based in the spoken form of English native to the [[Dublin]] of Joyce's youth.

Despite the difficulties involved in understanding it, ''Finnegan's Wake'' is not without its admirers, and is hailed by some as a classic work of [[literature]]. Even detractors applaud Joyce's daring, and his achievement in fully realising his ideas about experimental writing into a full-length novel.
