This is apparently supposed to be the longest novel ever. Keep in mind that the middle 2000 pages are nothing but the word "thanks".

Guinness had this as the world record for a while, but at least now it seems that they've at least had the sense to crack it open and realize what it's mostly made of. It's since been delisted.

I would’ve classed Finnegans Wake as the longest one in terms of time taken to read in a way you’d understand it!

"Understand" is a relative term.

Henry Darger to thread.

Could use an editor, who would make a killing.

You can't really say you've read it if you skipped the all-"thanks" section, though.
