Description

"The works of James Joyce have long been regarded as central to European modernism. In recent years, it has also become clear what a continuing provocation and source of renewal Joyce's works provide for contemporary cultural theory, especially feminism, postmodernism, and postcolonialism. Steven Connor's book is an animated, accessible introduction to the whole range of Joyce's work, from Dubliners (1914) through to Finnegans Wake (1939). It traces the leading concerns of the work with language, sexual and cultural identity, and the transforming experiences of modernity; and it considers the relations between Joyce and postmodernity."--BOOK JACKET.
