The Skin of our Teeth

As I read The Skin of Our Teeth I really liked all of the references to historical figures such as the Sabine women, Cain, and the Ice Age. It was a revelation to find out that this play is a ripoff of Finnegans Wake. I honestly did not see the connection until Dr. Sexson pointed it out in class. I did kind of pick up on the stream-of-consciousness technique, but I failed to connect it to Joyce's book.
