Overview
This path-breaking, fascinating "howdidhedoit" looks at Joyce's thought processes during the years 1922-24, when, although still preoccupied with the reception of Ulysses, he began to search for a form capable of conveying the archetypal vision of what eventually became Finnegans Wake. Drawing upon a vast body of archival materials, David Hayman traces Joyce's progress from exploratory notes, to a crucial group of early sketches, to his conception of the Wake's family of timeless characters.Book Details
