Synopsis "Finnegans Wake (Wordsworth Classics) "

Finnegans Wake is the book of Here Comes Everybody and Anna Livia Plurabelle and their family - their book, but in a curious way the book of us all as well as all our books. Joyce's last great work, it is not comprised of many borrowed styles, like Ulysses, but, rather, formulated as one dense, tongue-twisting soundscape. This 'language' is based on English vocabulary and syntax but, at the same time, self-consciously designed to function as a pun machine with an astonishing capacity for resisting singularity of meaning. Announcing a 'revolution of the word', this astonishing book amounts to a powerfully resonant cultural critique - a unique kind of miscommunication which, far from stabilizing the world in meaning, constructs a universe radically unfixed by a wild diversity of possibilities and potentials. It also remains the most hilarious, 'obscene', book of innuendos ever to be imagined.

View Author's Page
James Joyce (Dublin, 1882-Zurich, 1941) was an Irish writer, globally recognized as one of the most important and influential of the 20th century, acclaimed for his masterpiece, Ulysses (1922), and for his controversial later novel, Finnegans Wake (1939). His series of short stories titled Dubliners (1914), as well as his semi-autobiographical novel A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916), have also been highly valued. Joyce is a prominent representative of the avant-garde literary movement known as Anglo-Saxon modernism, alongside authors such as T.S. Eliot, Virginia Woolf, Ezra Pound, or Wallace Stevens.
