Description
Finnegans Wake is a novel that defies conventional syntax and punctuation, instead embracing a language of neologisms, puns, and portmanteaus. This experimental work by James Joyce has been praised for its humour and humanity, even as it challenges readers with its avant-garde style.
Published to coincide with the eightieth anniversary of its first publication in 1939, this edition incorporates Joyce's manuscript amendments and features a critical introduction by Dr Sam Slote of Trinity College Dublin. This comprehensive edition provides a unique insight into Joyce's masterpiece, making it an essential choice for readers interested in literary modernism.
