James Joyce: A Life from Beginning to End

Few figures in Irish history are as well-known as James Joyce. He was born into hardship in a country mired in political conflict, but rather than allow himself to get bogged down, he used his experiences to create some of the finest pieces of modernist literature to date. His work, in his time, was both subversive and controversial. On the one hand, it made publication difficult, which contributed to Joyce spending the majority of his life in poverty. On the other, it generated free publicity and broader public interest, which eventually led him to success.
James Joyce is considered the number one literary voice of Ireland, and for good reason. In this book, we discover his life and his story from beginning to end.
