He has a much higher tolerance for wading through slow or difficult reads than I do.

A suggestion on Joyce: try reading him
aloud.
Everyone has a primary sense. Joyce's was hearing. He was attempting to reproduce the sort of things he
heard on his famous walks through Dublin.
Read it aloud, and cadences and flavor of the work may come across more strongly.
