I very much enjoyed this, although I found that many passages from the last section of the book escaped me. But certainly a worthwhile read.
A much more accessible work for someone who wants to try reading Joyce. Definitely easier than Ulysses! Prose is gorgeous, well worth any effort it takes to get through it.
