Description
First edition hardback in very good condition, with dust jacket (1970)
24 Irish writers look at the life and work of James Joyce.
‘Joyce was quintessentially an Irishman to the extent that Wilde, Shaw or Yeats could never be. This quality was the great source of his genius, the inexhaustible mine from which he would hew Ulysses and Finnegans Wake. In seeing Joyce through the eyes of the Irish we shall see the man more clearly and, I believe, understand the man more fully’.
John Ryan, editor
