A Talk by Cucaburr on “Finnegan’s Wake” at The Buttonwood Tree

Submitted by Anne-Marie Cannata McEwen

(November 3, 2022) —The Buttonwood Tree at 605 Main Street in Middletown announces the spoken word showcase of Cucaburr on Wednesday, November 9, 2022 at 7:00 p.m. The event is free, and all are welcome to attend.

Cucaburr (John O’Connor) will explain a portion of the text of Finnegan’s Wake, specifically pages 294 to 297 of the novel by James Joyce. These pages encapsulate, among other things, how Shakespeare and the Buddha complement each other and make up ultimate reality.  Much food for reflection.  Hopefully you’ll come away with a laugh or two.
