The footnotes are Joyce’s own. It is argued that Joyce's book started a dubious trend where postmodernist professors would dazzle their dilletant followers with a dizzying number of footnotes in their dense texts, usually to distract the reader from the fact that the main text is actually a load of nonsense. But as we see with Joyce, the main body contains a story of beguiling complexity and tantalizing plotlines.
