Finnegans Wake (Penguin Twentieth-Century Classics)193 reviews
James Joyce

Penguin Classics, 1999

It's not that difficult with a little help, C'mon!
Above all,this book must be read ALOUD-to oneself and/or to others, in a fake Irish brogue (or a real one if you're Irish); using this method, it is amazing how formerly incomprehensible references will come to light! This is the only way I have ever found it possible to read at all... Read the good key by Joe Campbell and don't try to understand every blasted drunken reference,as surely Joe ...
  
  











  



  
A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (Signet Classics)2 reviews
James Joyce

Signet Classics, 2006

An Impressive Display of Writing Genius
This is a very entertaining book and not difficult to read. Most book lovers will love the book. In my review below I do not give away the plot. That is left for the reader to discover. I read "Dubliners" and then read the present 250 page book as a warm up to ease into "Ulysses." This is a better book than "Dubliners" and we see the genius of Joyce without being intimidated - as the reader ...
  
  











  



  
Dubliners (Norton Critical Edition)2 reviews
James Joyce

W. W. Norton, 2005

Not just "An Original," but "THE Original"
This is the old father, the old artificer, of all 20th century short stories. Each story is a gem, and together they tell like a rosary. "The Dead," is by itself a masterpiece which resonates long after you've finished it. Dubliners is Joyce's most accessible work, readable and enjoyable without losing any of its deeper nuances.

Mount Everest for Readers
I can offer little in the way of literary criticism that has not been expounded by scholars about Joyce's masterpiece. What I can offer is the viewpoint of an 'average' reader. My edition was the 1922 text, and it was prefaced by the original publisher with a simple disclaimer: "The publisher asks the reader's indulgence for typographical errors unavoidable in the exceptional circumstances." ...

Still Using this Book!
Purchased this book about two months ago, when my son was five, and learned from it tremendously. Wish I had it before he was born so I could have understood his "misbehaviors" from the beginning. Better late than never! Every page of the book is easy to read and implement. The examples given were exactly what I was experiencing. The book shows you how to change and it's up to you whether ...
  
  











  



  
Dubliners: Text and Criticism; Revised Edition (Viking Critical Library)10 reviews
James Joyce

Penguin (Non-Classics), 1996

The Lessons of Life in Dublin
The simplest of all of Joyce's works, Dubliners introduces the people and everyday life present in Dublin, Ireland. While the events can be described as quite mundane, each of the fifteen short stories subtly highlights a unique meaning in life. Though each is self-sustaining, it is much more gratifying to read the tales in the order published. They follow the natural course of human life, ...

Best Kindle edition of Joyce's "Portrait"
There are many editions of James Joyce's "Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man" available, but this is easily the best Kindle edition. The text is based on Chester Anderson's 1964 text. There are also a good number of annotations by Seamus Deane--fewer than in Anderson's Viking Critical edition but sometimes more detailed and aimed at a less scholarly audience. best of all, this ...

Literature For Those Who Appreciate It.
There are wine enthusiasts who claim that certain vintages are wasted on those who fail to appreciate them. I'd never go that far in trying to restrict anyone from reading anything that's out there, but in Dubliners there is a certain sense that for those who have trained their minds to seek out the nuances hidden within literature, a great reward lies waiting. These ultra-realistic, almost dry ...
  
  











  



  
Dubliners (Oxford World's Classics)105 reviews

Untitled
I don't really have anything thoughtful to say exept that after reading this book multiple times, I think that it is tight, but breathes, and is choreographed as best as a human being could do, and in that regard, it is very much like a Beatles album, and should be esteemed in like manner.

The American Journey2 reviews
Joyce Oldham Appleby, Alan Brinkley, ...

McGraw-Hill/Glencoe, 1998

A Great Book
This book has a lot of information about the U.S. history. IT had documents, like the Declaration of Independence, The MAyflower Compact, etc. I think you can find ample information with this great heavy book of such numerous answers to questions you have on American history.
  
  











  



  
Ulysses Annotated: Notes for James Joyce's Ulysses [Revised and Expanded Edition]16 reviews
James Joyce

University of California Press, 1989

notes only!
Just a heads up that this is NOT an annotated edition of Ulysses (as I mistakenly thought in purchasing)(duh). It is 600-some pages of notes only and does not include the text of the novel.

Caedmon, 2005

Dublin digitally discerned and declaimed
Handsomely produced, elegantly assembled, and consistently engrossing: these actors read the stories with appropriate sensitivity, wit, pathos, and distance. The detachment of Joyce in his "voice" on the page is re-created well. When I have taught students "Araby" or "The Boarding House," the chance to hear the language repeated as its author would have meant it to be rendered makes these stories ...
  
  











  



  
The Dead (Case Studies in Contemporary Criticism)5 reviews
James Joyce

Bedford/St. Martin's, 1993

James Joyce read by Richard Setlock
I have listened to Setlock's readings, this one in particular, many times. He is very close to Joyce's voice, in interpretation and execution. The readings are masterly. This recording just grows and grows on you.

The Irish Sacred Text in English:SERIOUS THEMES FROM WOMB TO TOMB IN AN INCAPABLE TONGUE
FOR STUDENTS STRUGGLING WITH THIS GREATEST NOVEL IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE please skip to the twelfth episode, called Cyclops. YOu will find there all the major themes written in an engaging style, and all the threads of the plot. Just jump there and the teacher will think you read the whole not-easily-digestible work. Each episode is a microcosm and a repeating or respeaking of the same ...
  
  











  



  
A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (Case Studies in Contemporary Criticism)
James Joyce

Bedford/St. Martin's, 2005

This critical edition of Joyce’s classic novel presents the 1964 text, corrected by Chester G. Anderson, along with critical essays that read A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man from contemporary psychoanalytic, feminist, cultural studies, and postcolonial perspectives. An additional essay demonstrates how several critical perspectives can be combined. As in the first edition, the text and essays are complemented by biographical and ...

For a little more money, get a lot more JOYCE!
I was out on a shopping venture intending to buy a copy of Joyce's "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man" when I stumbled on to this Joyce volume. For only $4 more, this is well worth it. Not only does this include "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man", but it also includes Joyce's revolutionary short story collection, "Dubliners". Levin also includes samples of other Joyce writings ...
  
  











  



  
Teaching an Anthill to Fetch: Developing Collaborative Intelligence @ Work14 reviews
Stephen James Joyce

Mighty Small Books Publishing, 2007

New solutions and opportunities
I read a lot of business books. I mean a LOT. I even write one occasionally. What Stephen Joyce has done with this book is quite extraordinary. It's rare that we discover a TRULY new way of looking at how the world works. That's exactly what this book does. Joyce practically compels you see and act on new solutions and opportunities. I really think that this is one of the best and most ...
