Since we announced the October 20, 2009 reading, we have had a number of inquiries regarding participation. Here is the chart we are using. If you send an email or leave a comment below, we will send you a section. That, or just choose your own and let us know which section you have selected. You should practice to be sure you can complete your section in 10 minutes. We expect to have Book IV covered and doubling up should be fine. Reader Pages I 593-596, line 16 (596.16) II 596.17-600 III 600-603.16 IV 603.17-607 V 607.16-611 VI 611-614.16 VII 617-620.16 VIII 620.17-624 IX 625- end If you would like to take part in this or future readings, contact bend of bay.

There was a comment from someone that indicated they could not participate in a reading in New York. Keep in mind that for the October 20 reading it doesn’t matter where you are. The most important point is the time; you can adjust to your time zone. You don’t even need to leave home or office. Also, Book IV is only 35 pages. If you assume it takes 2:30 to read a page and do the math, 35 readers gives a 2:30 performance time.

Given the dispersion of people we can double up parts, or confirm new pages depending on the number of responses I get between now and, say, October 15.

Depending on the response to the October 20 reading we may make this a series.

There will be a partial performance of Section II PROJECT Finnegans Wake on October 20, 2009. This version will be confined to Book IV and will start at 5:15 PM GMT and 12:15 PM in New York City. Be on the lookout for readers. They can be anywhere.
