With a new Introduction by Cedric Watts, Research Professor of
English, University of Sussex. James Joyce's astonishing
masterpiece, Ulysses, tells of the diverse events which befall
Leopold Bloom and Stephen Dedalus in Dublin on 16 June 1904, during
which Bloom's voluptuous wife, Molly, commits adultery. Initially
deemed obscene in England and the USA, this richly-allusive novel,
revolutionary in its Modernistic experimentalism, was hailed as a
work of genius by W. B. Yeats, T. S. Eliot and Ernest Hemingway.
Scandalously frank, wittily erudite, mercurially eloquent,
resourcefully comic and generously humane, Ulysses offers the
reader a life-changing experience.

James Joyce's 1916 novella A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man
is about the early manhood of Stephen Dedalus, later one of the
leading characters in Ulysses. Stephen's growing self-awareness as
an artist forces him to reject the whole narrow world in which he
has been brought up, including family ties, nationalism, and the
Catholic religion.
This is the first critical edition of Exiles, Joyce's only extant
play and his least appreciated work. A. Nicholas Fargnoli and
Michael Patrick Gillespie contend that the play deserves the same
serious study as Joyce's fiction and stands on the cutting edge of
modern drama. Their introduction situates Exiles in the context of
Irish history and Joyce's other works, highlighting its
often-overlooked complexity. The text of the play is newly
annotated and unregularized, appearing as Joyce originallyintended.
Containing a variety of critical responses to the text, including
an interview with a recent director of the play, this edition
establishes Exiles as an important component of Joyce's canon.
Living overseas but writing, always, about his native city, Joyce
made Dublin unforgettable. The stories in Dubliners show us
truants, seducers, gossips, rally-drivers, generous hostesses,
corrupt politicians, failing priests, amateur theologians,
struggling musicians, moony adolescents, victims of domestic
brutishness, sentimental aunts and poets, patriots earnest or
cynical, and people striving to get by. In every sense an
international figure, Joyce was faithful to his own country by
seeing it unflinchingly and challenging every precedent and piety
in Irish literature.
