First published in 1959, then extensively revised for the 1982
edition, this remains one of the great models of 20th-century
biography. The late Richard Ellmann combines enormous erudition
with a clarity of style. His greatest success is in creating
sympathetically a seamless whole between the man and his work, and
in making Joyce live three-dimensionally on the page in all his
infuriating genius. A remarkable book which set a new standard of
humane scholarship, assembling vast quantities of material with
great elegance and building up a moving recreation of a complex
character. (Kirkus UK)
'A truly masterful biography, wise in its completeness. If Joyce be
a great writer, then this is a great book.' Sunday Times 'The
greatest literary biography of the century.' Anthony Burgess, The
Observer
