I finished C&P and ALRdTP (albeit both when I was at college; not sure I could do it now) but not U. My college boyfriend wrote a finals paper on Joyce without ever having read Finnegan's Wake, and got a IIi.
Yes to everything you say about genre. Thank you.
I think there are lots of different pleasures of reading: the familiar, the other world, not being in this world, the beautiful. It's hell on the neck, though.
