Description
James Joyce's life had a profound impact on modern literature. His influence can still be felt today, more than a century after his birth.
A writer who embodied the romantic tradition of total commitment to his craft, Joyce suffered near-poverty and financial dependency for much of his life in pursuit of his literary goals. Despite these challenges, he was fortunate to have benefactors who enabled him to focus on his work without distraction.
This biography draws on new material to explore the inner landscape of a writer whose legacy continues to fascinate readers. It offers a fresh perspective on Joyce's life and work, going beyond the exterior details to reveal the complexities of a creative genius.
