It was done in 1939, and it is amazing:
>O'Brien labored mightily to make At Swim-Two-Birds summary-proof. But here, anyway, are the bare bones: the narrator, a university student, is writing a novel, which keeps morphing from mock-heroics to middlebrow naturalism. Meanwhile, one of his characters, Dermot Trellis, is himself writing a Western--an Irish Western--whose cowpunching protagonists will eventually throw off their fictional shackles and attempt to murder their creator."
Yes! I would highly recommend At-Swim-Two-Birds next. It’s got the surreal aspects of Third Policeman, but with a bit more lightness and heart.

Wish I could help, but since I don't have anything in the way of extra cash this week, here is a link to where you can find the book, if this is the right one, anyway.
