Rather than going over the same ground other volumes have trod, Brown (modern literature, U. of Leeds) and his contributors look into some of the dark corners that still exist, including those found in famous and obscure texts, in contexts and locations, and in approaches and receptions. In these 25 essays contributors ably re-read Dubliners, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Ulysses and Finnegans Wake, then place Joyce within his contexts as a European, an object of concern in Ireland, an object of emulation in Germany, a postcolonial, and a hot topic in Japan, India and New Zealand. Critical readings cover Joyce's place in the epic and in French theory, his part in pop culture, his bridge to Pinter and vice versa, his blessing upon Irish poetry, and his relationship with psychoanalysis. Particular interesting is an essay on previously unknown original manuscripts. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
