I have read it and I'm reading it again for my M Phil dissertation. There
really is no short cut but one could try the audio book I think. Much of
the *Wake* is meant for the ear, try Joyce's recording where he reads out
from ALP. For a more 'serious' reading one could begin armed with a few
plot summaries, guides- John Gordon's, and of course the *Skeleton Key*.
But Roland McHugh's *Annotations *and his *The* *Sigla* *of Finnegans
Wake*are just indispensable.
