Joyce

Despite growing up in straitened circumstances and having to move many times as a child, Joyce succeeded in gaining a place at Dublin’s University College, where he forged the aesthetic philosophy that would shape his fiction. This detailed study explores the crucial events in his life and how his work balances the abstract with the everyday. Slightly off-mint.
