The title of Finnegans Wake


Found on Facebook and fact-checked as best I can.  Apparently this is true.  Interesting (not that I'll ever read the book, but interesting nevertheless).  Posted for other English majors and copy editors, who are the only people who will care.

  1. Wouldn’t there then be an apostrophe after the s ?

    1. Nope. Because then "wake" would be a verb ("wake up").
