Joe Scapellato, one of the blog editors at The Collagist , asked me a few questions about writing. He applied a constraint to my replies. He asked me to reply only in excerpts from the works of James Joyce, a la Unknown Arts  (Keyhole Press).

I formed my answers around Joyce's many references in Ulysses to Shakespeare (and especially Hamlet). Here's the sentence from Ulysses that inspired me: 

"He reflected on the pleasures derived from the literature of instruction rather than of amusement as applied to the works of William Shakespeare for the solution of difficult problems in imaginary or real life." 

I had a lot of fun putting it together, and I hope it's an enjoyable read.
