The "pre-Portrait of an Artist" book is "Stephen Hero".  A first draft
and (say some) unfinished.  Still, it's interesting if you want to get
off the beaten track.  Also, don't forget the early poems "Chamber Music"
--a good intro to the general tone and vocabulary used in the short stories
and "Portrait..."  The "Wake" has a special place in literature--one look
and you'll know why.  Everyone I know who's read it (several readers) says
it totallly changed the way they view the English language. -- A strong
statement for a single book....
