No fading, even to the spine. ***300 pages including a section of Notes and Index of Titles and First Lines at the back of the book. 224mm x 145mm. ***'This important collection brings together in one volume all the poems published by James Joyce in his lifetime, most notably "Chamber Music" and "Pomes Penyeach". It also includes a large body of his satiric or humorous occasional verse, much of which is fugitive and little known to the general reader. In addition, the volume provides the text of the surviving prose "Epiphanies", which help us to understand the formative stages of Joyce's art; "Giacomo Joyce", the fascinating Trieste notebook that Joyce compiled while finishing "A Portrait of the Artist" and beginning "Ulysses"; and the 1904 essay "A Portrait of the Artist", in which he first explored the world of his autobiographical novel. The whole collection contains much that will be unfamiliar to the student and the general reader.' [Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper] ***James Augustine Aloysius Joyce (2 February 1882 - 13 January 1941) was an Irish novelist, short story writer, poet, and literary critic. He contributed to the modernist avant-garde movement and is regarded as one of the most influential and important writers of the 20th century. Joyce's novel "Ulysses" (1922) is a landmark in which the episodes of Homer's "Odyssey" are paralleled in a variety of literary styles, most famously stream of consciousness. Other well-known works are the short-story collection "Dubliners" (1914), and the novels "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man" (1916) and "Finnegans Wake" (1939). His other writings include three books of poetry, a play, letters, and occasional journalism.' [Wiki] ***A first impression of the true first edition, in exceptional condition.
