did you like it?  
I thought it was well done, but kinda sad rather than the romp it could have been.  OTOH I suppose delving into the real life sources for the archetypes on the Island dredges up 20th century history and makes it hard to be upbeat

I could read GW, so there is one major difference (the abnihilisation of the etym is not practiced in GW to any great extent)

but are there real correspondences between GW and FW?  I didn't notice any but I know next to nothing about FW -- does each character own a part of the book in Finnegans Wake as in GW?
