Several years ago on a whim, Culleton requested James Joyce's FBI
file. Hoover had Joyce under surveillance as a suspected Communist,
and the chain of cross references that Culleton followed from
Joyce's file lead her to obscenity trials and, less obviously, to a
plot to assassinate Irish labour leader Philip Larkin. However
devoted a great deal of energy to keeping watch on intellectuals
and considered literature to be dangerous on a number of levels.
Joyce and the G Men explores how these linkages are indicative of
the culture of the FBI under Hoover, and the resurgence of American
anti intellectualism. MARKET 1: American History; Political
