Call of Joyce


Textual variant of the opening line of Finnegans Wake, begun by Joyce in Bognor Regis and found in Bognor Regis museum (fragment of text since stolen from a display case in an unsolved break-in):


riverrun, past Eve and Adam's, from swerve of shore to bend of bay, Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn, brings us by a commodius vicus of recirculation back to R'lyeh and Environs.

Genius. My copy of the rulebook for Call of Cthulu arrived yesterday, by the way...

excellent, I have several more of these to come, allowing for the delay of the trip to Sardinia. Hope to maybe catch up with you both in Berlin if we can manage it.
