What is James Joyce : a biography about?
Gordon Bowker's biography incorporates recently unearthed material, of interest to the hardcore Joycean. It includes the palaver surrounding Joyce's 1931 marriage ceremony to Nora Barnacle and his rejection of an Irish passport underscoring his ambivalence towards his homeland. Bowker is concerned with Joyce's life, capturing the sorrowful aspects of his circumstances - the religious apostasy that would bring his mother such heartache and the increasingly precarious health of Joyce's beloved daughter, Lucia.Auszeichnung : isbn searchedWörter : 278376
