I bought this book just for the recipes!

Joyce with the gloves offThese are, to be sure, the kind of thing you read not because you're interested in the subjects under discussion (who, apart from elderly Irish poets, cares about James Clarence Mangan?) but because you're interested in what Joyce has to say about them. All his criticism is of the strategic rather than tactical kind, the kind of criticism certain writers engage in so as to clear the ground for their own efforts. He's no John Updike, prepared to write 2000 words about anybody he happens to find interesting.
Apart from a vacuous introduction by Guy Davenport, this is a fascinating book. I'm sure it's far from complete, seeing as nobody can even agree about where Joyce's books stop and his drafts begin, but it'll do until time and decay simplify the picture. Joyce is the great pathfinder of modern Irish writing. Hail to the Chief.


Great!

Great Story, wonderful dogThe book made me miss my beloved Dougal all the more. He behaved very much like Skipper.
Sarah J. Mason can always be counted on for clever plots and well-placed clues, but usually she keeps me guessing right up to the end.
This is a nice, cozy story and will appeal to a large audience.
