Sinopsis

Generally considered one of the greatest modern writers,áJames Joyceá(1882&ndash,1941) grew up in Dublin, Ireland, but spent his adult life in the European cities of Trieste, Zurich, and Paris. Yet, while he left his native country behind, he never stopped writing about it. He published his well-known short story collection,áDubliners,áin 1914 and the coming-of-age noveláA Portrait of the Artist as a Young Manátwo years later. In 1922 cameáUlysses,áthe book that would make Joyce famous and infamous at the same time: extremely controversial in its time,áUlyssesáwas banned in the U.K. and the U.S. and led to a landmark obscenity case in 1933.InáSimply Joyce, authoráMargot Norrisástrips the mystery from Joyce',s ground-breaking books by offering a clear introduction to why and how they were produced. Along the way, she offers insights into Joyce&rsquo,s life and creative inspirations by exploring his stories and novels in depth. Beginning with the more accessible early works and proceeding througháUlyssesáand the even more challengingáFinnegans Wake&mdash,Joyce&rsquo,s final work that was published two years before his death&mdash,Norris provides a clear and easily understandable overview of this seminal writer.BotháUlyssesáandáPortrait of the Artistáare included on almost every list of the greatest novels of all time.áSimply Joyceáshows why this is so and, for those who have never had the pleasure of discovering Joyce&rsquo,s works, it will serve as a riveting introduction and a jumping-off point into theáextraordinary linguistic world of one of the most influential writers of the previous century.
