Internally free of any writing or bookplates. Lacking the scarce original dust jacket. Overall a solid copy of the author's first novel. Slocum & Cahoon A11. A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is Joyce's second book and first novel. With the assistance of Ezra Pound the semi-autobiographical text was first published serially in twenty-one monthly installments in the British literary magazine The Egoist from February 1914-September 1915. Readers' critical reactions and fear of obscenity laws led many British publishers to initially reject publication and it was first published in book form in America in 1916. The book which is a virtual rewrite of his abandoned novel Stephen Hero tells the story of the young artist Stephen Daedalus Joyce's fictionalized alter ego. The name alludes to both the Christian martyr Saint Stephen and the Greek mythological inventor Daedalus. A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is a Künstlerroman a subset of the bildungsroman genre. The novel is written in Joyce's characteristic style of free indirect speech; Joyce's writing style matures along with Daedalus' own consciousness so that the sophistication of the narrator's voice mirrors the protagonist's level of awareness.

Overall a pleasing copy of this important translation of Joyce's tour de force. Slocum & Cahoon D17. This first French edition of Ulysses was the second translated edition of the book the first German edition was published in 1927 and one of only four translated editions published in Joyce's lifetime the other two being Czech 1930 and Japanese 1931. Interestingly key sections of the book were translated into French before the book was published in English for a "Special Session on James Joyce" hosted by Valery Larbaud and Adrienne Monnier Sylvia Beach's romantic and literary partner at Monnier's bookshop La Maison des Amis des Livres on December 7 1921 Ulysses was first published in English in 1922. Jacques-Benoist Méchin translated the final word of the book with a capitalized "Oui" which Joyce subsequently adopted for the English language version ".yes I said yes I will Yes" after a lengthy discussion with Méchin an artistic choice that contributed heavily to the enduring critical interest in that line. Assessing the impact of Ulysses T. S. Eliot said of Joyce "He single-handedly killed the 19th century." Ulysses is a stream-of-consciousness novel that follows Leopold Bloom through Dublin on an ordinary day June 16 1904-notably the same day that Joyce first went on a date with Nora Barnacle who would later become his wife. The book is heavily fragmented and allusive with a structure that loosely parallels Homer's The Odyssey. Regarding the book's complexity Joyce said "I've put in so many enigmas and puzzles that it will keep the professors busy for centuries arguing over what I meant and that's the only way of ensuring one's immortality.".
